Karan Johar Hails Animal as the Year’s Best Film, Labels it a Transformative Game-Changer
Karan Johar lavished high praise on Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s film “Animal” during the Mega Pan India Roundtable 2023 organized by Galatta Plus. Seated alongside Vanga, Johar declared the movie as the standout film of the year, emphasizing its transformative impact on the industry. Speaking at the roundtable, Johar shared, “Animal is a game-changer. It’s the best film of the year. People have compared it to ‘Rocky Aur Rani’ as if it’s a vaccine for a film like Animal. However, I strongly disagree because Animal, for me, is unparalleled this year. Expressing such views takes time and courage, especially in a group setting where fear of judgment looms. Similar apprehensions were present during the time of ‘Kabir Singh,’ a film I also loved, but now I don’t care about receiving judgmental looks.”
Johar delved into the reasons behind his admiration for the Ranbir Kapoor-starrer, praising its bold and conviction-driven storytelling. He commended Animal for breaking away from mainstream cinema norms, defying conventions, and presenting a narrative that challenges expectations. Johar recounted standout moments, such as an interval block where the hero faces adversity while a song plays, and the emotionally charged climax where two characters engage in a violent confrontation accompanied by a poignant song. He shared, “I saw the film twice – once as an audience member and the second time to analyze it. The success and acceptance of Animal are revolutionary. The film’s conviction is something I aspire to achieve.”
“Animal” centers around a tumultuous father-son relationship, with Ranbir Kapoor portraying Rannvijay Singh seeking revenge after an attempt on his father’s life. The film features a stellar cast, including Bobby Deol, Anil Kapoor, Rashmika Mandanna, Shakti Kapoor, Triptii Dimri, Prithviraj, and Siddhant Karnick. Notably, “Animal” has surpassed ₹500 crore in domestic box office earnings, solidifying its commercial success.
