He emphasized that the film's success on its opening day isn't due to critics' reviews but rather attributed to the film's craftsmanship, which he believes critics fail to acknowledge due to their alleged lack of education and knowledge in film analysis. The Kabir Singh director said "They have no sense to criticise a film or review a film. They only see the sensitive part of the film and speak. If at all you want to sit with them and talk face-to-face, they don't have the guts." Check out the viral video below.


Animal delves into the complex dynamics of a toxic father-son relationship within the crime-ridden underworld. Helmed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga, the film premiered on December 1, accumulating a staggering gross worldwide revenue of over Rs 835 crore. His earlier works such as the Telugu hit Arjun Reddy starring Vijay Deverakonda and its Hindi adaptation Kabir Singh featuring Shahid Kapoor, have faced criticism for allegedly glorifying toxic masculinity.
