Addressing the negative reviews on the movie, Ranbir Kapoor said the controversy created a “healthy” conversation among people.

He said, “A healthy conversation took place about toxic masculinity also, which is a great thing because cinema at least starts a conversation. If something is wrong,and you don’t show that it is wrong, and unless the conversation happens in the society, we will never come to terms with it.”

The actor added, “The roles we are playing, they are characters. It is important that as actors, we have empathy for them because we are playing them. But as an audience, you can decide what’s wrong. You can make a film on the wrong person and I feel it should be made. Because if you don’t make a film on characters like them, society will never know and improve.”

Animal Park, if and when released, will also become the topic of discussion among the audience, since Vanga will be taking it to a darker horizon.
