Khushbu Sundar about Ranbir Kapoor, Sandeep Vanga film Animal: ‘Not my kind of film’
Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s directorial Animal starring Ranbir Kapoor and Rashmika Mandanna has seen all kinds of extreme reactions since its release. Now, actor-politician Khushbu Sundar has expressed her reaction to the film.
Animal, a crime-revenge film starring Ranbir Kapoor, was a huge hit at the box office in 2023. It received critical attention for its depiction of a toxic and hyper-masculine storyline, but also faced polarizing reactions from audiences - either loving it or hating it.
Now, In a recent development, renowned actor-politician Khushbu Sundar has expressed her concerns about Animal and how it became a blockbuster despite its controversial narrative.
Khushbu Sundar expressed her views on Animal
During her recent Summit program, Khushbu expressed her concerns about the humongous success of Animal. She said, “First thing I would like to say in this room is that I haven’t watched the film Animal because that’s not my kind of film. If a film like Animal continues to be one of the biggest box office-grossing films, then we need to think about the mindset of the people who go and watch such films. Even before that, we had a major issue with Kabir Singh. I don’t blame the director because I think for him it’s the success which is going to count.”
Expressing her disappointment, she questioned the mindset of audiences, particularly the new generation, who rush to cinemas to watch a certain genre of movies. She said, “And they’re all youngsters. They’re educated youngsters. ‘Oh, we love the film.’ And I’m like, ‘Guys, what’s going on in your mind?."
Khushbu also revealed that kids warned her not to see the film after they watched it and this made her think about why people continue to watch such movies, and she believes there is a need for a change in society.
