Since the release of the film “Animal,” there has been a lot of criticism on social media about its perceived misogyny. Some viewers argue that Ranbir Kapoor‘s character is deeply flawed, while others praise Rashmika Mandanna’s character for not accepting him after learning he had cheated.
Many women that feel that the film main portrays relationships with men in a negative light. One social media user shared a video clip from “Animal,” highlighting how Ranbir’s character cheats on Rashmika’s character with Zoya, played by Tripti Dimri. The caption read, “Remember: Nothing is scarier than trusting a man,” which many found to be a pessimistic and biased statement.
Rashmika quickly responded to this post. She clarified, “Correction: Trusting a stupid man is scary; There are a lot of good men also out there. Trusting them is special.” She added a love emoji, suggesting that viewers should see “Animal” as just a film, not a reflection of society as a whole.
