It was just a few months ago when Kiran Rao and Sandeep Reddy Vanga were having a cold war that grabbed headlines. The conflict was about the kind of movies Vanga has been making. The last film that Sandeep Reddy Vanga made was the Ranbir Kapoor starrer 'Animal', which atracted controversy for its misogynistic and problematic take. However, after its release, the film became Netflix's highest-viewed film. But now this record has been broken, and guess by which film? It is Kiran Rao's directorial 'Laapataa Ladies that has broken Sandeep Reddy Vanga's 'Animal' record.

Kiran Rao Reacts To Laapataa Ladies Beating Animal

Yes, you read that right. Kiran Rao's 'Laapataa Ladies' has become 2024's breakout hit by surpassing 'Animal' in Netflix viewership. After this news came out, Kiran Rao herself took to her social media and, through her story, showed her happiness for the achievement.

Starring Pratibha Ranta, Nitanshi Goel, Sparsh Shrivastava, and Ravi Kishan in lead roles, the movie is based in a rural village where two newlyweds get separated from their husbands after their wedding because of the long ghungat. Since the release of the film, it has been receiving critical acclaim and love from the audience.

Meanwhile, 'Animal', which was released on December 1, 2023, stars Ranbir Kapoor, Rashmika Mandanna, and Anil Kapoor in the lead roles. The high-action drama is the story of a son who can go to any extent for his love for his father.

About Kiran Rao and Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s Debate

In one of his interviews with Dainik Bhaskar, Vanga pulled out an old comment of Kiran and said, “This morning, my AD showed me an article. It is of the second ex-wife of a superstar. She is saying that films like 'Bahubali 2' and 'Kabir Singh' promote misogyny and stalking. I think she does not know the difference between stalking and approaching.” Vanga also called out Aamir Khan’s 'Dil' movie song, "Khambe Jaisi Khadi Hai."

Later, Kiran responded to Vanga, saying, "I haven't commented on Mr. Sandeep Reddy Vanga's films because I haven't seen them. Why Mr. Vanga Reddy has assumed that I am talking about his film, you will have to ask him.”

She also said that Vanga should talk to Aamir Khan man-to-man if he has an issue with any of his films, as Kiran is not responsible for Aamir’s work or Aamir Khan. Stay tuned to OTTplay for more information on this and everything else in the world of streaming and films.
