Ranbir Kapoor reacted to the criticism his film Animal received following its release. The film released last month and was accused of glorifying misogyny and toxic masculinity. The film was slammed by a section of social media, with Javed Akhtar also criticising the film. Ranbir addressed the criticism during the success party of Animal and said that love for the film and box office success of the film has conquered everything.
Animal has done a phenomenal business at the box office. The film has recorded a worldwide box office collection of Rs 904.93 cr, as per Bollywood Hungama. Ranbir spoke about the success of the film and mentioned the criticism. “I want to thank all of you for being here today to celebrate Animal. It is a film that a section of people had an issue with but I feel the kind of love, success and the numbers (it has received) proves that nothing goes beyond the love for a movie. Nothing goes beyond movies,” Ranbir said, as reported by PTI.
Sandeep addressed the criticism in several interviews as well. Speaking with Connect FM Canada in December, Sandeep said, “All these critics should go to China. You know the most happening thing in China is English tuition. They are good with English so that they could go and tutor there. Other than new English words in their reviews, you don’t find anything else.”
He added that the critisim is affecting the film’s box office. “Despite giving elaborate explanations (post the release of Kabir Singh), they don’t even try to analyse the film. They talk about only two or three things. After Animal, I realized that it would be there for all my films. It’s alright. The criticism will intensify even more for Spirit and Animal Park,” he added.
Meanwhile, Ranbir and Sandeep are set to reunite for Animal’s sequel, titled Animal Park.
