Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s desire to create a movie on Michael Jackson has been no secret, as he has expressed it in several interviews. According to Deccan Herald, talks between Vanga and Allu Arjun are reportedly in advanced stages, fueling speculation about the project’s development.
In a recent interview with Galatta Plus, Sandeep Reddy Vanga was asked about the personality whose biopic he would like to direct. Without hesitation, he named Michael Jackson, describing it as a dream project and passionately discussing the icon’s fascinating life journey. Vanga pondered over the crucial aspect of casting the right actor for the role, emphasizing the importance of finding someone who can do justice to Jackson’s legacy.
He remarked, “But the question is, who will play him, who will be the actor? But if you get an actor, you can pitch it to Hollywood and you can make it in English. He led a very interesting life, right from his childhood to his schooling and how he changed his skin color and all that, what he has been through. It’s a great journey and a great story. But who would be the right actor, that’s the question. That will be a dream and everybody will buy the ticket. Whoever directs it, I would buy the tickets and watch it because I want to know.”
