“Animal” Sets Milestone in North America
Recently, it was also reported that Animal has crossed $1 million in North America. With this, the Sandeep Reddy Vanga directorial has become the first Hindi movie in North America to achieve this feat.
Directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga, Animal also stars Rashmika Mandanna in the lead. The film marks her first collaboration with Ranbir. Bobby Deol, Anil Kapoor and Tripti Dimri also play key roles in the film. The film revolves around a father and son’s toxic relationship. The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) has given Animal an ‘A’ certificate. The film’s run time is 3 hours and 35 minutes.
According to News18 Showsha’s review, “Animal” is recommended for those with bold hearts, given its intense and unapologetic nature, including a notably brutal throat-slitting scene. The film is described as dark, loud, and extravagant, with a soundtrack that occasionally overpowers the dialogues. Despite these elements, the review suggests that the unconventional approach works well. The movie, though not living up to all the ambitious claims made by its creators, is deemed an entertaining roller coaster ride that manages to keep the audience engaged throughout, thanks to Sandeep’s witty direction.
