Animal Roaring: Ranbir Kapoor's Film Eyes Rs 500 Cr Over the Weekend, Crossing Rs 490 Cr
December 16, Mumbai: The box office performance of Ranbir Kapoor's ambitious action film "Animal" has rebounded significantly after experiencing a slight dip in its second week. The movie made a solid Rs 13 crore on Day 16, bringing its total domestic earnings to an incredible Rs 491.26 crore.
Given its impressive showing on Saturday, Animal may surpass the coveted Rs 500 crore milestone this weekend. Due to positive word-of-mouth, the absence of significant competition, and the joyous mood, trade analysts are extremely optimistic about Sunday's results.
For Kapoor, whose expectations were slightly lower for the film during the week, this comeback is a welcome relief. Nonetheless, its dominance over the weekend, supported by excellent showings in major cities and markets, attests to its popularity with viewers.
In addition to becoming one of the highest-grossing Hindi movies of 2023, "Animal" also became Ranbir Kapoor's biggest solo success to date. With its success, the actor makes a noteworthy comeback; in 2018, he last delivered a hit movie with the musical drama "Sanju."
Key roles are played by Bobby Deol, Rashmika Mandanna, and Anil Kapoor in this Sandeep Reddy Vanga-directed movie. Both reviewers and viewers have praised it for its intense performance by Ranbir Kapoor, its thrilling chase scenes, and its fast-paced action sequences.
"Animal" is solidifying its status as a major box office winner and a turning point in Ranbir Kapoor's career, with the potential to cross Rs 500 crore by Sunday.
