"that tyagi girl" what a savage slap to pseudo secular sucharita

[kun]

He is 100% true these reviewer are biased.. They find that Garbage The Archies nice. Hats off to Vanga.

[JnanaBharata]

Being person from south I can say all the while Bollywood only showed Sikhs as comedy people. This film showed how they are good in relationships

[Ok]

Vanga trolling the entire blood line of chappris is a treat to watch 😂

[sai]

Clearly unfair criticism for this movie. Just because he is a south Indian director. People really think they can bash as much as they can & he has no support. Audience are his strength, we know what is right & what is not. The movie & characters are so real. We love it so much. We supported this movie. Critics need to make a movie instead of reviews.

[tejaskulkarni.]

The way sandeep reddy wanga sir created movie taking care of each smallest to biggest thing is appreciable. His interviews are class of filmography. Excellent director❤️

[dipak]

Sandeep Vanga! is a master storyteller. Unlike a traditional director, he thinks out of the box and does not care what the damn critics will think about his film. He tells a story that he wants to tell - hats off Sandeep sir! I really wish our Bollywood directors would learn a two about story telling from Sandeep sir. One reply to the nonsense critics - in real life, a human being does not exactly behave like actor or actresses portrayed in the movies. Human beings are imperfect whether a man or a women and Sandeep sir portrays that on the big screen.

"They are illiterate people " Hundred percent right

The respect Faridoon gives to his interviewee is top notch. An hour long interview felt like 10 mins long, just like Sandeep’s movie.
The Great Gutsy Vanga!
Big admirer of his craft and Ranbir too.

[SR-vlpy]

Mr.Reddy I am a woman and I loved the film to the hilt..You and Ranbir, all the actors and the background score brought back the thrill of watching a movie in the theatre. Like mega blockbusters of yester years.
Pls make the cinema you believe in... truly loved it and Ranbir after Rockstar glad u brought Tripti to mainstream commercial cinema. ❤❤❤❤❤

[nsandeep]

Anupama Chopra, Rajeev Masand and that Tyagi girl.... Hilarious.🤣🤣🤣

[sai]

He is unfiltered & rare quality. In a world of so many people acting around, he is so honest & open.

[MayaChaitanyaAI]

“When you challenge and live up to the expectations, people will hate you” Golden words!!

[virendrasingha]

Vanga seems honest guy.Doesn't hides his character.whatever inside he speaks out.I support him.
These Anupama chopra, Sucharita Tyagi etc.. are Propagandist.

[muthukrishnan]

I also feel that whenever i see Anupama chopra interviews, i really find new English words as VANGA said. He was 100 percent right with that👏👏👏

[Ragnar.Lothbrockk]

Out of every languages in the world, dude chose to speak the FACTS 🥵
