Exhibitor and trade expert Akshaye Rathi agrees that ‘Animal’ is a game-changer, generating buzz and polarizing conversations. The rising popularity of the antihero is evident in films like ‘Khalnayak’ and ‘Don 2’. Girish Wankhede believes that anti-hero films have always been loved by the audience, with ‘Animal’ being the latest trend. The new antihero in ‘Animal’ is more violent, foul-mouthed, and frustrated. The success of ‘Salaar’ with a killing machine protagonist shows the return of action and macho heroes. Masculinity and larger-than-life characters appeal to the mass audience. Entertainment News, Celebrity News, Latest Movie News, Breaking News | Entertainment – Times of India
