An actor is as good as his last Friday, and for Ranbir Kapoor this is certainly invaluable, especially with the release of his latest Animal. Directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga the bloody actioner that also stars Anil Kapoor, Bobby Deol, and Rashmika Mandanna, the film created immense hype in the run-up to its release. In fact, Animal that struck a chord with the audience came with immense hope and anticipation. Living up to the same, Animal opened on a roaring note and continued to dominate the box office window over its opening weekend running.
Now after just four days at the box office, Animal that has been receiving immense appreciation in both the domestic and international markets has seen equally high collections coming in each day. At the domestic box office, Animal, which has proved to be unstoppable, is on a record-setting spree for Ranbir Kapoor. After emerging as the actor’s highest opening day and opening weekend grosser, the film has now propelled Ranbir into a new club altogether. In fact, with Animal Ranbir Kapoor now joins the elite few actors like Akshay Kumar, Aamir Khan, Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, and Ajay Devgn whose cumulative box office collections are over Rs. 2000 cr. at the India box office.
If that was not enough, Ranbir who currently occupies the sixth spot on the list with a cumulative collection of Rs. 2018.02 cr. from 21 releases looks set to dethrone Aamir Khan, whose cumulative total stands at Rs. 2146.94 cr. from 30 releases and emerge among the Top 5 actors with the highest cumulative box office collection.
