Tripti Dimri the star from 'Animal' has decided to clarify the misogynist role in the film only after the Sandeep Reddy Vanga directed film has done a business of Rs.563 plus crore business in nine days, making it the biggest grosser this year beating Pathan and Tiger 3.

Explaining the scene where she is asked to lick his shoes by the hero Ranbir Kapoor she said that she did not have to do it on screen as he leaves the scane after making the statement.

The other leading lady Rashmika Mandanna who plays his wife and asks detailed questions about his fling with the other woman including if he used condoms is also now telling the media how thrilled she is with her role as a strong and devoted wife.

With a conspiracy of silence from all quarters including PETA which should stop protecting animals after this film it was finally left to the Congress MP from Chattisgarh Ranjeet Ranjan for doing what all of us should collectively have done.

Speaking in Parliament the mother of two lashed out at the makers of the film saying that his daughter walked out of the theatre crying because she could not see the domestic and non domestic violence and the worst misogyny we had seen in Hindi cinema.

The trigger for the violence unleashed by the hero Ranbir Kapoor is an attack on his father industrialist Anil Kapoor.

Even though this father has never cared to care for his doting son Ranbir takes it as his duty to punish all those who attack his sister or father ever since he is school.

We had seen violence in Tiger 3 and Pathan as well which went on to become huge hits but the heroes had a motive mostly saving the country from enemies which is an old formula.

But the mindless violence and misogyny displayed by a hero so sensitive about the Parivar will make the common viewer think how far they can go to avenge insults and threats.

Finally when he does locate the source of the attacks Bobby Deol son of one of the associates of Anil Kapoor Ranbir Kapoor indulges in a bare bodied duel with him.

This blood soaked duel ends with Ranbir Kapoor slitting his head with a knife.

Once again we are forced to wonder if there is a Censor Board in the country.
