Filmmaker Nitesh Tiwari, known for Dangal and Chhichhore, recently revealed that he would prefer directing Animal Park over Mirzapur 4. He explained that Animal Park felt like the “better, more tempting” choice, making it his preferred project if given the opportunity.
Why Animal Park Stands Out for Tiwari
In conversation with Komal Nahta, the filmmaker expressed his preference for Animal Park, calling it the more appealing choice. He emphasized that the project offers a chance to bring out stronger performances and collaborate with someone he deeply values—Ranbir Kapoor.
Animal Park is believed to be the sequel to Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s 2023 blockbuster Animal, which showcased Ranbir Kapoor in a striking new avatar. While details about the sequel remain undisclosed, excitement and anticipation for the film are already soaring.
The Challenge of Writing Dangal
Nitesh Tiwari shared the challenges of writing Dangal, revealing that the film underwent five different climax versions before settling on the most emotionally impactful one. Since Geeta Phogat’s gold medal win was already known, the team kept viewers engaged by having Mahavir Singh Phogat, played by Aamir Khan, absent from the final match.
Crafting an Engaging Climax
Tiwari revealed that the team explored five different approaches before selecting the one that best enhanced the emotional impact. The goal was to keep the audience invested—not in whether Geeta would win, but in how she would achieve victory without her father by her side.
Ranbir to lock horns with Yash
