During the 55th International Film Festival of India, the actor reflected on the glorification of violence in his last film directed by notable filmmaker Sandeep Reddy Vanga.<\/p>\n

While acknowledging that the movie had extreme violence, Ranbir Kapoor emphasised the importance of responsible storytelling in cinema.<\/p>\n

\u201cI completely agree with your opinion. As actors, this is our responsibility to bring movies that make a positive impact on society,\u201d the Bollywood actor said.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the \u2018Animal\u2019 actor said that actors need to explore different genres and characters.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs actors, it\u2019s important for me to dabble in different genres and characters, and play varied roles,\u201d Ranbir Kapoor said.<\/p>\n

\u2018Animal\u2018 tells the story of Rannvijay Singh (Ranbir Kapoor) undergoing a remarkable transformation as the bond with his father Balbir Singh (Anil Kapoor) begins to fracture, and he becomes consumed by a quest for vengeance.<\/p>\n

While the film garnered praise for its acting, it came under severe criticism for its glorifying \u201ctoxic masculinity\u201d and \u201cmisogyny\u201d.<\/p>\n

Veteran Indian writer Javed Akhtar had earlier said that the success of films such as \u2018Animal\u2019 was a \u201cdangerous trend.\u201d<\/p>\n

He later redacted his statement, saying that his criticism was for the audience who liked the film.<\/p>\n

According to Javed Akhtar, the success of the film showed where the audience\u2019s priorities were in regard to films.<\/p>\n

\u201cI didn\u2019t express my opinion on Animal, I spoke about the audience that watched it. If 15 people have made a film with the wrong values, if 10-12 people make obscene songs, that\u2019s not the problem. If 15 people are perverts among the 140 crore population, it doesn\u2019t matter. When that thing goes on the market and becomes a superhit, that\u2019s the problem,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

It is noteworthy here that Sandeep Reddy Vanga has announced making a sequel<\/a> to the film titled \u2018Animal Park\u2018.<\/p>\n

In an Instagram post last year, the makers of the film confirmed that the upcoming sequel would be titled \u2018Animal Park\u2018.<\/p>\n

According to the post, director Sandeep Reddy Vanga will collaborate with producer Bhushan Kumar for the project.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
