Animal has taken the box office by storm since its debut. Boasting a stellar cast including Ranbir Kapoor, Anil Kapoor, Bobby Deol, Rashmika Mandanna, and Triptii Dimri, the film has not only raked in robust collections but has also left fans thoroughly delighted. The viral scenes, particularly those depicting the intense chemistry between Ranbir’s character Ranvijay and Triptii’s Zoya have become a talking point. The film emerged as the highest-grossing Indian film in Australia and Canada. Australia and Canada are the best-performing markets for Animal.
According to reports, the film is expected to enter the Rs. 900 crore club today. As such, the makers have reduced the ticket price to Rs. 100.

Recently, a success party was held to celebrate this feat. At the success party, Ranbir said, “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 prove that nothing goes beyond the love for a movie. Nothing goes beyond movies.”
An OTT version of Animal is also scheduled to be released on Netflix soon. While the date is yet to be announced, many reports claim that the OTT release will take place in January this year.
In an interview, with Connect FM Canada, filmmaker Sandeep Reddy Vanga lashed out at the film’s critics for panning his new film Animal. He said, “In a way, I understood their mental status and their IQ…If morality comes into the picture, then you can’t make this film.”
Further, Vanga added, “If everybody is going to focus just on the morality, we should stop making films. Let’s just make cartoons. They’re saying children are walking out of the theatres in tears, high school girls are feeling unsafe; they should not be watching the film, it’s rated A.” In a separate interview with Galatta Plus, the filmmaker said that poor reviews don’t affect his writing. According to him, certain critics have a tendency to over-analyse films and extract ‘wrong interpretations’.
