New Delhi: Actor Bobby Deol, who portrayed the antagonist in the recently released film 'Animal', stated that he saw his role as that of a person who has experienced childhood trauma rather than as a monster. For his brief role as the menacing mute mobster Abrar Haque in Sandeep Reddy Vanga's film, which stars Ranbir Kapoor, the 54-year-old actor is receiving praises. 

Deol went on to call Abrar a "family man". "I didn't think of my character as a villain. I saw my character as a child who was traumatised when he saw his grandfather committing suicide, so he loses his voice. He swears to avenge his grandfather's death.

Bobby referred to him as a romantic as he is married to "three wives." 

The actor made this statement during Agenda AajTak 2023's second day of sessions in New Delhi.

"He is very family oriented. He is also romantic, he has three wives. He can kill and also get killed for his family," Bobby said. 

Deol remarked that viewers will be able to relate to the film's level of brutality, characterizing it as an emotion.

"The characters in this movie... the animal in them has woken up. They are all like animals. That's why there's violence. This is a family drama, a father-son story, and family relationships. It is a reflection of what happens in a society. Definitely action like that is visually created so that people get intrigued but that kind of action, that kind of violence exists in our society," he added.

Presented as a father-son tale, the action drama released in Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam on December 1. The global box office collections for Animal, which also stars Anil Kapoor, Rashmika Mandanna, and Triptii Dimri, are getting close to Rs 800 crore.
