Animal Box Office Collection Day 8: Beats Sanju to Become Highest-Grossing Film of Ranbir Kapoor’s Career. Check The Day-Wise Box Office Breakup of The Sandeep Reddy Vanga Directorial Here.
Animal beats Sanju at Box Office: Animal has done the unthinkable for Ranbir Kapoor. The film has now dethroned Sanju as the highest-grossing film for the actor. The Sandeep Reddy Vanga directorial which is receiving a lot of criticism for being misogynist, has exceeded the benchmark of Rs 350 crore nett at the domestic Box Office. Most films don’t achieve this number even in their lifetime worldwide gross collection.
After its eight-day run in India, Animal has collected in the range of Rs 353-355 crore nett which is both fantastic and appreciatory, simply because it has come so far despite all the negative chatter on social media around it. The film also stars Anil Kapoor, Bobby Deol, Rashmika Mandanna and Tripti Dimri in important roles. All the actors in the film seem to have gained a newfound popularity from Animal and that seems to be translating into numbers at the Box Office. As per early estimates from our sources, Animal has collected in the range of Rs 15-17 crore nett on Friday, taking the total of eight days to around Rs 355 crore nett. The actual figures will be updated by Saturday morning.
