Bobby Deol had a 15-minute appearance in Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s Animal but as the audience watched the film, they could not stop talking about his enigmatic screen presence. 2023 has been marked as the year of the Deols as Dharmendra was loved for his work in Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani and Sunny Deol created history at the box office with Gadar 2, and while the Deol family has been extremely supportive of each other through it all, Sunny recently said that he did not like everything about Animal.
In a chat with PTI, Sunny said that he has watched Animal and is “very happy for Bobby.” Calling it a “nice film”, Sunny added that there were certain things in the film that he did not appreciate. “There are certain things that I did not like, which I don’t like in many films including my own films. But that’s as a person I have the right to like or not like but in totality it is a nice film. The music is very good and it goes hand in glove with the sequences. Bobby has always been Bobby, but now he is Lord Bobby,” he told PTI.
Bobby played Abrar in the film, who is the arch nemesis of Ranbir Kapoor’s Ranvijay. In one of the scenes of the film, Abrar is shown to be sexually assaulting his third wife and when asked about the same, Bobby told The Quint, “I’m not trying to promote anything. Yes, it was required. How do you showcase a character in such a short span, show what this man is capable of, what kind of person he is? All these scenes were required.”

Previously, actor Mansi Taxak, who plays his third wife, also defended the scene and told Zoom Entertainment, “It was just that Bobby sir did not expect his brother’s death news to come on the wedding, which puts the character into a zone where he couldn’t think straight. And that’s what we’re talking about, right? Animal instincts are unpredictable instincts. So he goes into that zone, and to vent out his emotions, he comes to his wives. I don’t think it was intended to be any sort of assault. I didn’t feel it on the set, or in the script. That was not the case. It was just a relationship between two people that has panned out the way it did.”
Animal has made Rs 800 crore globally.
