No extended cut?
Fans were quickly disappointed as soon as they saw the runtime on Netflix India when Animal appeared on the OTT platform on Friday. The duration was 3 hours and 24 minutes, the same as its theatrical version.
Secondly, when viewers watched the climactic showdown on the runway, between Ranbir Kapoor starrer Rannvijay and Bobby Deol’s antagonist Abrar, they were even more disappointed that there was no ‘kiss’ between the two actors, as Sandeep had promised after the theatrical release.
Sandeep had said in an interview to Galata Plus“Yes, there was actually a kiss. Bobby will kiss Ranbir, a kiss on the cheek, and say, ‘Bhai, I didn’t even spend a day with my dad,’ and he’ll come back and unzip him. “It was gorgeous when we were filming, but I felt that the kiss was diluting the zipper. The reason I removed it was because Bobby sir made this expression with a smile and a tear fell down his cheek. I felt like it was a bigger cinematic. higher than cumming and kissing.” He then promised that the kiss would make it to the extended cut on Netflix India.
Reactions to the missing ‘expanded cut’
Several X (formerly Twitter) users expressed disappointment at the lack of the extended cut. One wrote: “Extended cutting with animals is a scam lol. Original runtime 3H23M. Netflix runtime is 3H24M (eye moving emojis).” Another posted: “Where is the extended version of Animal on Netflix? It was supposed to last 3h44m, right?
