Ranbir Kapoor’s much-anticipated movie, “Animal,” directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga, is hitting the theaters on December 1st. Excitement is building up for its box office performance, and it’s set to go head-to-head with some of Bollywood’s highest-grossing adult films.
A Thrilling Collaboration:
Sandeep Reddy Vanga, known for his Bollywood debut with “Kabir Singh,” is back with “Animal.” The film promises a gripping storyline, and with a versatile actor like Ranbir Kapoor, expectations are soaring. Early glimpses have already piqued the audience’s interest, creating a buzz around the film.
No Age Barriers:
Despite receiving an ‘A’ certificate from CBFC for its intense content, “Animal” is expected to make a significant mark at the box office. The film’s violent theme makes it one of the most intense in Bollywood’s history, but the makers believe it won’t hinder its potential for success. The goal is to break records and possibly become one of the highest-grossing adult films in Bollywood.
Tough Competition:
To reach the top, “Animal” has to surpass the box office numbers of some heavyweight adult films. The current top 5 highest-grossing adult films in Bollywood are:
- Kabir Singh (2019) – 278.24 crores
- The Kashmir Files (2022) – 252.50 crores
- The Kerala Story (2023) – 238.27 crores
- OMG 2 (2023) – 150 crores
- Grand Masti (2013) – 102.50 crores
The competition is stiff, with three films already crossing the 200-crore mark, an impressive feat given the age restrictions. While “Animal” carries immense potential, claiming the top spot won’t be an easy task.
Final Thoughts:
Despite the tough competition, “Animal” has the potential to make history at the box office. Whether it can become the first adult film to cross the 300-crore mark in Bollywood remains to be seen. Stay tuned for more box office updates and film verdicts in 2023 from Koimoi.
