Animal started steaming in Netflix. The film stars Ranbir Kapoor, Rashmika Mandanna, Triptii Dimri, Anil Kapoor and Bobby Deol. While the movie made headlines for its controversial dialogues and scenes, director Sandee Vanga had also caught everyone’s attention by revealing that he was planning to release an extended version of the film for OTT. However, now fans got disappointed as there are no added scenes in OTT version.
Following the movie’s release in theaters, fans who enjoyed it were excited about the possibility of Netflix India adding 30 extra minutes of content not shown in the original theatrical version. Many were hopeful that this anticipated addition would indeed take place.
However, Animal is currently available for streaming on Netflix, but contrary to expectations, there is no extra footage included. This has left fans of Sandeep Reddy Vanga disappointed, and people on the internet are expressing their criticism towards Netflix for not meeting the anticipated delivery.
Such films usually provoke strong reactions on OTT platforms, particularly during family viewing sessions. It remains to be seen how Animal will be received on OTT after its successful theatrical run with mixed reviews.
Animal depicts the complex relationship between Vijay (Ranbir Kapoor) and his emotionally distant father (Anil Kapoor). Vijay, portrayed as an anti-hero, takes extreme measures, even resorting to gunning down 200 people with a machine gun, in an attempt to protect his father. Despite his drastic actions, he struggles to earn approval from his emotionally unavailable father. The film has already achieved significant success, surpassing the Rs 500 crore mark at the Indian box office.
The movie received mixed reactions, with some viewers appreciating its portrayal, while others criticized it for allegedly promoting toxic masculinity.
