Bollywood films have often landed in controversies for one or the other reasons. Owing to the controversial nature of the films, we have often seen goons entering and vandalizing theatres. In the latest shocking turn of events, a few masked men entered 3 Canadian theatres to disturb the movie-watching experience of the audience. Yes, you heard that right! For some time, the recently released Hindi film Animal has been making noise across the globe.
Headlined by Ranbir Kapoor, the film has been in the news for allegedly glorifying toxic masculinity, misogyny, and violence. Earlier, we saw people causing a ruckus during the release of Thalapathy Vijay’s ‘Leo,’ Prabhas-led Adipurush, and Shah Rukh Khan starrer Pathaan, among others. Now, here’s another piece of news coming from Canada.
