I’m an Indian Hindu woman disturbed by the movie Animal which shows an Indian man having affairs outside marriage. Cultural heritage what makes India & this movie disturbs the “one man one wife” concept of this country. Plz take action.
@NetflixIndia @netflix please remove Hindi movie ANIMAL from Netflix, it reflects gore violence and abuse against women, this isn’t called entertainment
