The outspoken and often controversial filmmaker Sandeep Reddy Vanga has once again set social media ablaze with a fiery post defending the film industry’s recent creative choices. Taking to X on April 9, 2026, the Animal director launched a scathing attack on critics and “liberals” while offering high praise for the newly released ‘Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge’.
Vanga’s post did not mince words, accusing a specific “clan” of writers and actors of building their careers on propaganda while remaining silent when it suited them. He expressed his frustration over the labeling of truth as propaganda, stating, “Strange times… don’t know when truth started getting labeled as propaganda.” He further challenged the “liberal” identity of those whose first instinct is to mock, suggesting a deep-seated hypocrisy within the industry’s critical circles.
Direct Support for Aditya Dhar and Ranveer Singh
Moving from the general to the specific, Vanga directly addressed director Aditya Dhar and lead star Ranveer Singh. Using intense, metaphorical language, he wrote about warding off the “kaala drishti” (evil eye) surrounding their latest collaboration. His provocative statement- “Muthi bhar ke laal mirch se kaam nahi chalega… poora khet jalana padega” – has already become a viral talking point, signaling his uncompromising support for the film’s vision.
‘Dhurandhar 2’ Gets the Vanga Seal of Approval
Vanga concluded his post by confirming he watched Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge last night, calling it an “Outstanding film.” Given Vanga’s own reputation for gritty, unapologetic storytelling, his endorsement carries significant weight for the action-thriller’s box office momentum.
The interaction has sparked a massive debate online, with fans of Ranveer Singh and Aditya Dhar celebrating the support, while critics argue that Vanga is further polarizing an already divided cinematic landscape. Regardless of the stance, one thing is clear: Dhurandhar 2 is now at the center of the season’s biggest cultural conversation.
