Sandeep Reddy Vanga is now making ‘Spirit’
Actor Shahid Kapoor has revealed that Sandeep Reddy Vanga once considered bringing together ‘Kabir Singh’ (2019) and Ranvijay Singh of ‘Animal’ (2023) together on screen. While promoting his upcoming film ‘O’Romeo’, Shahid said that the director had approached him during the making of ‘Animal’ for a cameo. “When ‘Animal’ was being made, Sandeep came to meet me. He wanted one scene of Kabir to be there, but it couldn’t happen,” the actor shared. He added that scheduling issues and other factors stalled the plan, saying, “Both those characters belong to him; that world is his.” Earlier, Vanga had said that he dropped the idea to avoid “cameo desperation”.
