Spirit: Sandeep Reddy Vanga about Prabhas starrer’s runtime
Director Sandeep Reddy Vanga was recently spotted in a chat with Jagapathi Babu on the show, Jayammu NischayammuRaa with Jagapathi. Appearing alongside Ram Gopal Varma, the Arjun Reddy director was asked about the expected runtime of Spirit.
In response, Vanga said, “I’ll make sure the runtime doesn’t exceed 3 hours, sir.” His comment was made in a humorous tone, referencing his last movie, Animal, which ran more than 3 hours in runtime.
Additionally, Sandeep said that he has completed 70% of the film’s BGM before filming, similar to how he worked on Animal. He said, “It's easier to shoot a film when the BGM is playing in the set. We can easily know when to say the cut.”
“During Kabir Singh, I understood that if the BGM is done before the commencement of the production, the shooting will be much easier. I didn't have that privilege during Arjun Reddy and Kabir Singh, but for Animal, 80% of the BGM was done before the shoot. Even now, for Spirit, 70% of BGM is already ready,” the filmmaker added.
Sandeep added, “I feel we can save a lot of time this way. In totality, we can save around 5 to 6 days of production. Prabhas is very transparent and very sweet to work with. Though he is a big star, he doesn't flaunt it. We will start the shoot soon."
