Speaking to Bollywood Hungama, Taran Adarsh revealed how every actor, including a megastar like Amitabh Bachchan, have always feared Friday box office. While addressing box office success of actors, he went on to speak about the success of Ranbir Kapoor as he went on to call him ‘as the next Shah Rukh Khan’. “I didn’t get a chance to watch Animal in the theatres or the preview screenings at T-Series. I saw Animal on Netflix once first, then once more, and once again. I saw it thrice and every time I saw it, I felt it was a fantastic film. Anyone can judge me for it but I don’t care. But I loved the film. Sandeep Reddy Vanga is a genius”, asserted the trade analyst.

He continued, “Ranbir Kapoor is the next Shah Rukh Khan. Having said that, Shah Rukh Khan has a different position. But Ranbir is something else. There is no actor, his age, with due respect to Ranveer Singh or Kartik Aaryan and many other actors who are his contemporaries, I don’t think anyone can match Ranbir Kapoor after Animal. He is a fantastic, fantabulous actor. For me, he is the best we have today.” He further went on to add how despite his flops, a single Friday changed everything for the Kapoor boy.

For the unversed, Ranbir Kapoor starrer Animal broke box office records as it went on to become the highest grossing A-rated film. Sandeep Reddy Vanga and Kapoor are expected to reunite for a sequel to it, which was announced as Animal Park in the climax of its first instalment.
