The undercurrent of the film is pathos and humor, make-up, wonder and devotion have also been sprinkled at various places while writing the story.

Orgy of father-son story
The film ‘Animal’ is not like the adult film ‘Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham’, as Ranbir Kapoor himself said. It talks much further than that. This is the story of the inner turmoil of the child Ranvijay, who keeps getting frustrated due to his father being very busy in his work. The story begins in the year 2056, when an elderly owner of a huge business empire is telling his friends the story of a monkey molesting a princess.When the child grows up, he sees his elder sister constantly trying to talk to his father. Reason? Some people have ragged him in the college. He teaches a lesson to those who tease his sister. Enters the college with a stengun. Seeing all this, the father calls his son a criminal and sends him to a boarding school. The story comes forward again. This time at the place where the boy’s ninth class friend is getting engaged. He questions him. On the other hand, the father throws his son out of the house.The girl comes to his house with her brother and both go to America. The son returns when the father is fatally attacked. The son declares, ‘I will slit the throat of whoever fired at my father Balbir Singh with my own hand.’ It seems that it is the piercer of the house who is destroying Lanka, but the real twist in the story comes when This enmity turns out to be family based.
Ranbir Kapoor goes ahead of ‘Sanju’
Ranbir Kapoor’s film ‘Sanju’ is considered to be the best film of his career till now. Ranbir Kapoor looked so much like Sanjay Dutt in this film that Sanjay Dutt himself no longer looks like Sanjay Dutt. A glimpse of this Sanjay Dutt is also seen in the film ‘Animal’. Ranvijay here takes up arms to protect his family. The father also says, ‘If I raise my hand from my head, you will be in jail.’ This sourness between father and son has an impact on the entire story and when the son, who has prepared to go back to America, says this to his father. That we both repeat the same day when the son left Michael Jackson’s show and waited for his father on his birthday, then the whole essence of the film comes out.Ranbir Kapoor has played the character brilliantly from a teenage Ranvijay to a cruel, savage and ferocious Vijay. The time to find the lost angry young man of Hindi cinema in the role of Yash in ‘KGF 2’ is now over. Hindi cinema has got a new alpha angry young man in the film ‘Animal’. Ranbir Kapoor’s acting is amazing in every scene of the film. And, in Ranvijay’s scenes with his childhood sweetheart, Ranbir Kapoor has touched every heart that has ever experienced true love.
Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s cinema
This is Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s third film as a director and only his second film in Hindi. Sandeep, who has created a different kind of cinema with just three films, will have to face criticism due to the excessive violence in this film. But, it is important to keep in mind that this film is made only for adults. Blood is the first touch that a human being feels as soon as he is born. Blood shed through violence is therefore uncomfortable under ideal circumstances. But, shedding blood to show masculinity is considered a feat of masculinity and that is why moviegoers are yearning for such characters. Cinema is an art of Navarasas and in it the heroic, the fierce, the gruesome and the horrifying elements must come to the screen in an artistic manner. Sandeep has practiced these arts of acting very seriously throughout the film.The story hesitates once in the middle with the arrival of Zoya, played by Trupti Dimri, but as soon as Zoya’s reality is revealed, the film comes back on track. Apart from story, screenplay and direction, Sandeep has also taken up the responsibility of editing the film and his skill in this fourth department is what keeps this film of more than three hours engrossing.

Animal Social Message
The film ‘Animal’ has some social messages even amidst the violence. While this film balances the delicate thread of husband-wife relationship, it also shows that the Mahabharata, which is based on demanding a share, does not have a happy ending. There is also a taunt in this on those who have more than one wife under the guise of religion, what is the intention of most of the women who enter into such a relationship? And, forget about human relationships as soon as you get money. There is also a hint in the film about not taking care of the family members left behind in the village and it is also hinted that when the people of the city become snakes in their sleeves and start biting those who feed themselves, then the real help comes from them only. Meet people with whom the relationship is by blood. The background of Punjab is the soil of this film and the courage of Punjabiyat is its water. The story of the film, the direction and the acting of its actors add to this mud-water.
Rashmika fierce attitude
In terms of acting, although the film ‘Animal’ will be called Ranbir Kapoor’s film only, but its lead actress Rashmika Mandanna works to connect this film with the hearts of the audience. From the girl who rebelled against her family and went to marry an eccentric type of boy to the mother of two children, Rashmika has really acted very effectively. Rashmika’s character has been kept as South Indian, hence her ease of switching to English while speaking Hindi only strengthens her character. On the day of Karva Chauth, when the husband confesses to his wife waiting for her husband that he has had sexual relations with another woman, Rashmika has displayed her excellent acting talent in the scene that follows.When the husband returns home from coma and all his organs have become loose, then he tries to be intimate with his wife in front of the maid working in the house and in this scene Rashmika takes off her clothes and comes to Ranbir. Rashmika deserves no less praise than the film’s director for creating and acting that scene.
Animal supporting actors
Among the rest of the cast, Anil Kapoor has played the role of Ranbir Kapoor’s father, a strict businessman. It is not known how long this character will continue in this story, but it is the character of Balbir Singh that makes Rannvijay the angry young man Vijay. Shakti Kapoor’s mere presence in the frame in the film becomes the strength of the scene. His gestures add spice to the story. Suresh Oberoi and Prem Chopra have also played their roles convincingly. Upendra Limaye has a special role in the film and his Marathi dialogues and Marathi accent strengthen the film. Charu Shankar as Ranvijay’s mother, Siddharth Karnik as Balbir’s son-in-law, Saurabh Sachdeva as Abid Haq and Saloni Batra and Anshul Chauhan as Ranvijay’s sisters have also given noteworthy performances. But, Bobby Deol has played the real game of acting in the film. His character arrives just before the end of the film and manages to take the entire story to a different height. Yes, it is another matter that his character does not live up to the hype that was created about Bobby before the release of the film.
Attractive cinematography, perfect background music
The film will technically be counted among the best films of the new era Indian cinema. Amit Roy has acted as the eyes of director Sandeep Reddy Vanga. The film ‘Animal’ starts with a black-and-white scene and ends with a black-and-white scene, but in every scene of more than three hours in between, Amit Roy has filled all the colors that Sandeep might have imagined in his imagination. . If the director is good then he also fills the music in his story with great care and now there are very few music directors and lyricists in Hindi cinema who can single-handedly translate the entire thinking of a director like Sandeep into cinema. Therefore, there are seven lyricists including Bhupinder Babbal and approximately the same number of composers. Two songs of the film ‘Arjan Valley’ and ‘Papa Meri Jaan’ have already become hits and will continue to be played in the future also. The background music of the film has been composed by Harshvardhan Rameshwar, who composed ‘Papa Meri Jaan’ on the lyrics of Raj Shekhar and those who have noticed his work in ‘Arjun Reddy’ and ‘Kabir Singh’, here too, he becomes the breath of the story. Those going and trying to achieve perfection will definitely pay attention to the background music. Don’t miss the post-credits scene after the climax of the film because here it is also an invitation to watch the film’s sequel ‘Animal Park’.
