Actor Arjun Kapoor said that he watched the 2017 movie 'Arjun Reddy' "alone and got up on a chair and started clapping". "I went mad wondering how this man's (director Sandeep Reddy Vanga's) brain works, how he brings out these performances and what is this writing?" Arjun stated. Arjun Reddy, starring Vijay Deverakonda and Shalini Pandey, was Vanga's debut film.
