Ranbir Kapoor unleashed his new dimension as an action hero in his latest film, ‘Animal’. The action drama directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga caught controversy and provoked a lot of debates on social media despite the phenomenal run at the box office.
While it was celebrated by a set of audiences, some people heavily criticised the toxic masculinity in it. Now, cinematographer Siddhartha Nuni took to his Instagram stories and slammed ‘Animal’ in a fierce review. He is currently working on highly awaited films ‘Thalapathy 68’ and ‘Captain Miller’. His post is going viral on social media now.
Siddhartha Nuni wrote, “I had watched the film ‘Animal’ yesterday and honestly the film had triggered me no end. The films Nazi glorifying (wearing the swastika on the chest), justifying toxic masculinity with random alpha male theories, the no holds barred violence with no rule of law, marital rape, abusive relationships where the woman is relagated to being a mute bystander while the husband behaves like a brute. And the last shot of the film where the character of Ranbir Kapoor signals to the audience to come and suck his p***s were beyond redemption and abusive to the audience’minds. The fact that this film has collected so much money reflects the social condition of the country we live in? And for an A rated film, I have seen young children in the audience at a popular multiplex in Hyderabad. Where is the censorship and the responsibility to protect young minds?”
