Animal pre-teaser: ‘50 second glimpse better than trailer of Adipurush,’ say Ranbir Kapoor fans

The pre-teaser of Ranbir Kapoor’s upcoming film Animal was released on Sunday and it instantly sent the actor's fans into a tizzy. The 50-second-long pre-teaser video showed Ranbir Kapoor killing several people with an axe with a brooding look and long beard adding to the menace. The teaser begins with a group of people whose faces are covered with golden skulls as they wield axes. Ranbir takes an axe and a fight sequence ensues between him and the group of supposed baddies.   

Film critic and trade analyst Taran Adarsh shared the pre-teaser video of the film and wrote: “RANBIR KAPOOR: ‘ANIMAL’ PRE-TEASER IS HERE… Will keep it short and simple, after watching the first glimpse of #Animal: A STORM IS COMING… And #RanbirKapoor’s look is (sic). Here’s a sneak peek into the world created by #SandeepReddyVanga… #AnimalPreTeaser #BhushanKumar #MuradKhetani”.  

Soon after the action-packed pre-teaser came out, moviegoers shared their reactions about the same. They were of the opinion that the film has blockbuster written all over it. Some users also said that the box office clash on August 11 is the one to watch out for.  

Another user wrote that the 50-second glimpse of Ranbir Kapoor’s upcoming film is way better than the whole teaser and trailer of the Prabhas-starrer mythological film Adipurush. He wrote: “AGREE OR DIE (sic). These 50sec Glimpse Are Better Than The Whole Teaser, Trailer Of Adipurush #Animal #Animalpreteaser #RanbirKapoor #Prabhas #AdipurushOnJune16th” 

Another user said that Bollywood should not make remakes of superhit South Indian movies. The user suggested that Bollywood actors should instead work with South Indian movies to bring out the best in them.
