Animal producer claims Bollywood relies on corporate bookings to inflate box office; affirms accuracy of Ranbir Kapoor film’s collections

Despite facing strong competition from Prashanth Neel’s Prabhas-starrer Salaar: Part 1 – Ceasefire and Rajkumar Hirani’s Shah Rukh Khan film Dunki, Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s Animal, starring Ranbir Kapoor, continues to attract a substantial audience to the cinema halls. On its 25th day in theatres this Sunday, the action film recorded a domestic nett of Rs 2.18 crore, as reported by industry tracker Sacnilk.

Meanwhile, the film’s co-producer Pranay Reddy Vanga recently emphasised the accuracy of the collection figures released by the film’s team, asserting that they have not resorted to inflating numbers or relying on corporate bookings. During a conversation with iDream Media, the interviewer pointed out discussions surrounding the film’s box office collection, expressing that many were sceptical.
