'Animal' Adds to Ranbir Kapoor's 'Daddy Issues' Collection and Fans Can't Wait to Get Swayed Again
Sandeep reddy Vanga’s ‘Animal’ trailer, which came out on Thursday, is causing quite the stir, as expected. The filmmaker’s signature nods to violence, a central character swirling in turmoil, and a medley of domestic chaos brawls, screams, screeches, and nerve-racking breakdowns are all on grand display, cranked up to an electrifying level. And if that isn’t enough, come ranbir kapoor, the perennial protagonist of parental predicaments on the big screen, finding a fresh vent for his on-screen daddy issues.
From Ayan Mukerji’s ‘Wake Up Sid,’ portraying Ranbir’s Sid in a youthful struggle with his father (played by Anupam Kher), to ‘Yeh Jawani Hai Deewani,’ highlighting a subtle yet persistent clash of egos with his dad (delightfully portrayed by Farookh Shaikh), and in Imtiaz Ali’s ‘Tamasha,’ where Ranbir’s character grapples with conforming to his father’s ideals, and in Rajkumar Hirani’s ‘Sanju,’ depicting the titular character’s admiration for his father Sunil Dutt (played by Paresh Rawal) as a beacon of hope it seems RK’s journey of playing characters with ‘Daddy issues’ continues with ‘Animal.’
This time, he navigates a complex relationship with his father Balbir (played by Anil Kapoor), unveiling a tale of transformation, for better or worse. Ranbir’s character appears to have idolized his father since childhood, yet the reciprocation of love remains elusive. As ‘Animal’ unfolds, fans are once again acknowledging and celebrating Ranbir’s adept portrayal of the ‘son’ grappling with paternal complexities. The classic daddy Issues Universe takes a fresh turn in this film, and social media is abuzz with fans highlighting how ranbir kapoor is truly born to bring such ‘son’ roles to life with finesse.
Truly, the recurring themes of bottled-up emotions, simmering angst, and suppressed struggles in Ranbir’s past films find a new home in ‘Animal.’ It’s like the emotional cores of each character have collided, creating a massive emotional avalanche ready to hit the screen. Ranbir is gearing up to pick up where he left off, and it’s a rollercoaster ride fans can’t wait to hop on
