Actor Ranbir Kapoor, who is gearing up for the release of his film ‘Animal’, interacted with the media the trailer launch event of the film in Delhi. According to news agency PTI, the actor described his forthcoming movies as ‘adult-rated Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham’ and said that this is the ‘most complex character’ of his career.
He said, ‘Animal is basically the adult-rated Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham. If I had to describe this story in a line, then it's about a man who goes to any length to protect his family. That's what the core of the film is.’
‘Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham’ was a 2001 family drama directed by Karan Johar..
Talking about violence, Ranbir added, ‘That you hit someone and blood comes out, you'll get bored after 10 seconds. Violence is about the mind, what it thinks, what the human mind is capable of? What is right or wrong, where society is concerned? Is Bobby sir the antagonist or I am the antagonist? Who is right, who is wrong? These are questions as a society, audience, we will start asking after this film.’
Talking about Bobby Deol, Ranbir said that he grew up watching him and when he got a chance to work with him, he realised they were similar as people.
Ranbir said that as both are Punjabis, so there was an instant connection.
He recalled that they were shooting shirtless in London in minus 4-degree temperature but ‘there was so much warmth between us’ adding that they will cherish the bond forever.
