The conversation around Ranbir Kapoor`s latest release `Animal` directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga keeps coming up every now and then. After much chatter and discussion around the film Sandeep Reddy Vanga, the writer of the film has now spoken about the controversy surrounding the dialogues of the film. The dialogue writer of Animal, Saurabh Gupta, was in conversation with Ghazal Dhaliwal, at FICCI Frames.
At the event, the writer also addressed the dialogues where Ranbir Kapoor talks about pad-change and the portrayal of Bobby Deol`s Abrar Haque as a ‘stereotypical’ Muslim character. He said, “Cinema ke saath mardon ko sanitary napkin ki importance samjhana, cigarette peena, sharab peena kharab hai woh samjhana, itna bojh padh gaya hai, cinema jhuk gaya hai sir. Hum thoda maza karte hai na. (In Cinema, to make men understand the importance of sanitary napkins, that smoking and drinking is bad, all of this has become a huge burden. Let`s also have some fun).”
