The Animal trailer doesn’t shy away from showcasing the raw brutality, with a striking image of Ranbir atop a Gatling machine leaving a lasting impression. Sandeep Reddy Vanga, known for his previous work in Kabir Singh, has promised an escalation in violence compared to his earlier film. In response to critics, he vowed to deliver a film that truly embodies the intensity of violence, making Animal a compelling and potentially controversial cinematic experience.
The creative force behind Animal extends beyond Sandeep Reddy Vanga, with the screenplay crafted by Vanga, his elder brother Pranay Reddy Vanga, and Suresh Bandaru, complemented by dialogue penned by Saurabh Gupta. Awarded an ‘A’ certificate by the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC), the film is a collaborative production involving T-Series Films, Bhadrakali Pictures, and Cine1 Studios.

While both Arjun Reddy and Kabir Singh achieved significant commercial success, they also faced substantial criticism for romanticising and perpetuating toxic masculinity.
Sandeep Reddy Vanga first gained prominence with the Telugu film Arjun Reddy, featuring Vijay Deverakonda as an alcoholic doctor. The director later ventured into Hindi cinema, remaking the film as Kabir Singh, starring Shahid Kapoor in the lead role. While both Arjun Reddy and Kabir Singh achieved significant success at the box office, they also faced criticism for glorifying toxic masculinity.
The echoes of Vanga’s distinctive portrayal of gender dynamics surfaced in the teaser for Animal, where the protagonist, played by Ranbir Kapoor, sternly warned his partner (Rashmika Mandanna) never to speak against his father. The trailer further intensifies this theme, depicting Ranbir’s character resorting to violence as he grapples with deep-seated daddy issues, notably choking Rashmika’s character for daring to point them out.
Animal is set to face off against Vicky Kaushal’s period drama, Sam Bahadur, directed by Meghna Gulzar, in a box office showdown.
Animal is set to face off against Vicky Kaushal’s period drama, Sam Bahadur, directed by Meghna Gulzar, in a box office showdown. The industry is optimistic for a box office resurgence following the somewhat subdued performance of Tiger 3, which didn’t dominate the market as expected. Ranbir Kapoor’s previous venture, the romantic comedy Tu Jhooti Main Makkar, achieved global success with over Rs 200 crore in earnings, although its production costs were nearly as substantial. A similar scenario unfolded with Brahmastra, struggling to recover its reported Rs 400 crore budget at the box office. In contrast, Animal is rumoured to have been produced at a more economical cost of Rs 100 crore, potentially enhancing its prospects in the competitive cinematic landscape.
