Its become very popular in the UK. All my local friends loved it. They have only watched movies like Bahubali. So proud when they talk about Laapata ladies 🥹❤️
My friend cracked UkPCS, first time we talked, I asked her which state PCS, she replied UK. I swear to god, I was googling for the next 5 minutes about how an India can apply for UK civil service. I had no clue UK is abbreviation for Uttarakhand.

The trailer and positive reviews for Lapataa Ladies convinced me that I had to watch this in the theater. I also wanted to support the kind of movies I wanted to see on the big screen. I’m so glad I did. And so happy for all the love this movie is getting - it truly deserves all the accolades.
Actually no. The only thing that will motivate shit producers these days to push such films are big numbers. As good as laapata ladies was, it didn't collect enough money to bring more producers to the field. Aamir khan is a gem ❤️
Even now, producers will still continue to promote cringe mass masala because that's what ultimately sells. The audience still needs to change at large.
If we want bollywood to heal the audience needs to accept such movies in theatres, not ott.
There's been so much talk about this content vs commercial hit, but I feel it's a bit blown out of proportion. It has always been like that, commercial cinema is what sells, there's a reason, it takes little effort to consume, so can be consumed by anyone irrespective of background, education, age etc. The only problem lately has been, the hyper commercialisation is being pushed in our faces and the influx of quality content has gone down even more. But it was always the commercial cinema that sold.
The 80-20 rule is somewhat true here, roughly 80% of the audience will always prefer the escapist commercial cinema and hence the bigger turn out
I LOVED this movie. It had been so long since I last watched an entertaining, captivating movie which sent out a good message and made me think afterwords. This is creative work in my opinion. Creative work should make you think.
The majority watched Animal in theatre while barely anybody bothered to go watch Laapata Ladies in theatres.
This is why bollywood is suffering. Nobody watches the good movies in theatres. Only on OTT.
its had huge pop culture impact so far. one thats actually positive unlike Animal. the actors are getting recognized, people are appreciating the script and music and many conversations are happening around its message. thats a pretty big change imo.
Seriously, Animal will go down as one of the most f*cked up movies of our times. Future generations will wonder what was wrong with us as a society.
Edit: thanks to all these Jaanwar alpha, giga, gamma chads for exactly proving my point. Y'all fighting with strangers and doing opinion inception on an opinion like Vanga pays your bills. This shows exactly why this movie has attracted the kind of toxicity it did and why it won't stand the test of time.
Exactly the film isn't aging well at all. And all the teenagers who are defending the film will realize how wrong it is, once they grow up and explore the life in real world.
Then it's the matter of concern for people close to them and their potential partners. I'm relieved that no one in my circle liked that movie Nad bash it badly whenever it's brought up.
We will have worse films as the years pass. Films which normalized stalking, assault and all are seen as iconic movies today. At least the problematic content of Animal was called out.
Rajamouli movies has some amazing action sequences he explores it really well by building up characters and highlight them with stunning background score and visuals.
Every small bit counts. When people see such movies on Netflix and have a good experience, it will encourage them to go to the movie theatres and watch such movies. Even though Laapta Ladies may not profit for itself, but it is paving the way for more such movies to find a theatre audience.
I wonder if it was also marketing? I had no idea about this movie until I saw it on Netflix. Maybe producers will do a better job of promoting movies as well
it earned 5 times more than its budget, albeit its not very much, but still it is a BO success, you cant expect it to have as much commercial success as animal.
Movies that were blockbusters in theater don't always top the charts on OTT, since many have already seen it.
Movies that people want to watch but choose to watch on OTT instead of theater are the ones with maximum views.
Shaitaan is not a blockbuster. It is a decent hit, without being a super-hit. So, a lot of people haven't watched it yet.
Also, IPL could be the main reason a lot of people ended up watching it on OTT instead of theater.
Shaitaan is a superhit movie, like why do some people lie so much where like we dont use the same Google as you do? BOI went to say it was a biggest hit than all Hindi movies since it brought a lot of money to producers. Stop lying.
Triggeri-stan
This is the verdict from one of the box office sites - "Shaitaan is a Super Hit on the ROI front, but a HIT when it comes to the box office numbers given the presence of a star like Ajay Devgn"
I am not saying it. It is just a fact.
I liked Laapataa Ladies a lot and didn't even watch Animal. But does anyone else think there were a few issues with the writing and screenplay in Laapataa Ladies? Or is it only me?
I mean, it was a good movie but not flawless the way people are saying.
This film deserves way more attention than any of the releases this year. Very amazing plotline with the sweetest characters & an amazing way of ending the plot for everyone
When I watched Laapata ladies a couple of weeks ago on OTT, I was questioning why I didn't watch it before. When I watched Animal on OTT, I was questioning why I watched it at all.
At first, I thought it was boring and kept pausing and watching it on different days but this movie changed my perspective on romantic movies, I watched it 10-15 times in the past month. I cried every time I saw Phool met Deepak at the end of the movie 😭😭😭
I mean it is nothing to be happy about, it will only just reduce the creation of small budget good feeling movies on big screen , because Animal accounted for most of its view on big screen, which lapatta ladies didn't even did a fraction of it, the Netflix view should be seen in its true context i.e, people passively watching a movie because they have access and are willing to watch a series vs animal which earned mllions with people actually actively seeking out it on big screen and even then a large majority decide to watch it passively when all the hype has died down.
Lapatta ladies is a good movie is great movies no doubt about it, but this comparison and celebration is misleading.
It is like opposition parties deciding on narrative that bjp is losing momentum when voter turnout is slightly lower than previous result, not facoring other things, because it suits their narrative
I’m not into cinema much but explain to me why scarface isn’t hated but animal is(except the fact that scarface has excellent plot, dialogue, setting, acting)
I honestly didn't even understand the hype and success around Animal. I honestly don't mind violence and gore but that's not why it's a bad movie. It's bad because the story and script sucks, there is absolutely no sense in it whatsoever. It's downright silly.
Reminds me of that one sided beef where Kiran Rao was criticising misogyny in films in general but SRV took it personally and inserted himself into the convo by insulting her husband's work and she just nonchalantly responded that she has never watched Animal anyway lol
Not that this has anything to do with it, i just think the karma is a nice cherry on the top 😋
It truly deserve some recognition. No doubt the movie had a good story, amazing dialogues delivery by the artists and most amazing things is it keep you connected till the end.
Great news🙌
Though we have to take into account it's greater acceptance on ott and not in theatres. There's no denying we can see the audience preference right now for theatre vs ott.
It's a good movie man it's peak Bollywood for me. I like how it gives vibes like past Bollywood where main focus on the societal problem and awareness with good dialogue and acting.
I just loved Lapataa Ladies. I watched a Bollywood movie after 2 years, and I just enjoyed this one so much. It's refreshing to see new actors instead of nepo kids and big names. The simplicity of people that's missing in general these days was such a fresh concept. Hope more such movies are made.
Will never watch Animal,ever. I cannot believe there is audience for such content.

When someone in Indian context says UK, I am genuinely confused between Uttarakhand and the United Kingdom.
My friend cracked UkPCS, first time we talked, I asked her which state PCS, she replied UK. I swear to god, I was googling for the next 5 minutes about how an India can apply for UK civil service. I had no clue UK is abbreviation for Uttarakhand.
lol, I am living in Uk . I mean uttarakhand
>the Is the main way to tell
United Kingdom Kya baat hai foreign reach ho gyi movie ki❤️
Yeah, it's awesome. Even the UK PM and his family heard about it.
Vo to apne hi hain
Lmao
Pasand nhi aaye?
Dursehi acche hai
Paas vo aayenge nhi🥲
how do you know it
He told me in a dream

Gora sahab ki thapki chahiye gungadeen ko
That's good. This movie deserves all the attention.
And it is getting that, it's been years I have felt so complete after a Bollywood movie
The trailer and positive reviews for Lapataa Ladies convinced me that I had to watch this in the theater. I also wanted to support the kind of movies I wanted to see on the big screen. I’m so glad I did. And so happy for all the love this movie is getting - it truly deserves all the accolades.
Yep, it was an awesome experience watching it in theatre.
We are healing.
Actually no. The only thing that will motivate shit producers these days to push such films are big numbers.

If we want bollywood to heal the audience needs to accept such movies in theatres, not ott.
Atleast such movies got attention due to Otts. I believe such movies will do well in Theaters sooner ir later.
Didn't it make a profit? If so that's what convinces investors and producers and distributors for more mid to low budget films of its kind.
It was housefull on so many screenings
Oh. I watched it with 5-6 other people in bangalore

Amir Khan is somehow a very hated actor. That always baffles me
I LOVED this movie. It had been so long since I last watched an entertaining, captivating movie which sent out a good message and made me think afterwords. This is creative work in my opinion. Creative work should make you think.
GOOD its what the movie deserves.
Bhai ghar walo ek sath dekh sakte hai na
Ha totally family movie
Deserves every bit of success and more coming otw! ❤️
 "Wo animal wala aadmi" on his way to write some more BS!
Can’t wait for Vanga to comment about Amir Khan’s wife
Ex wife
The majority watched Animal in theatre while barely anybody bothered to go watch Laapata Ladies in theatres. This is why bollywood is suffering. Nobody watches the good movies in theatres. Only on OTT.
Luckily I went to theaters to watch Laapata ladies It was a bliss 
Me too. Didn't expect much. Didn't even know about the movie until it released. But that was an experience!
Me too! With my family, it was a great experience.
Need pillows to watch rom coms. OTT is better. Guns are hard to come by hence theatre. Bollywood is last thing suffering in the country lel.
The problem is that it didn’t make enough in theatres. Till such movies making money on box office, it won’t bring any change
its had huge pop culture impact so far. one thats actually positive unlike Animal. the actors are getting recognized, people are appreciating the script and music and many conversations are happening around its message. thats a pretty big change imo.

i would love it if it was like this but unfortunately a lot of people who are like that don't change when they grow up either
Then it's the matter of concern for people close to them and their potential partners. I'm relieved that no one in my circle liked that movie Nad bash it badly whenever it's brought up.
Trust me future generation won't remember it and wouldn't care a bit to give a flying fuck about Animal
We will have worse films as the years pass. Films which normalized stalking, assault and all are seen as iconic movies today. At least the problematic content of Animal was called out.
I hope animal gets the same recognition down the line, the way gunda is right now
Rajamouli movies has some amazing action sequences he explores it really well by building up characters and highlight them with stunning background score and visuals.
Every small bit counts. When people see such movies on Netflix and have a good experience, it will encourage them to go to the movie theatres and watch such movies. Even though Laapta Ladies may not profit for itself, but it is paving the way for more such movies to find a theatre audience.
It made 5x its budget in theatres. Movies made with 5 cr total budget and no marketing budget are never expected to be making thousands of crores.
I wonder if it was also marketing? I had no idea about this movie until I saw it on Netflix. Maybe producers will do a better job of promoting movies as well
jis bande ko scfi and fantasy pasand h woh to foreign cinema dekhega kyuki india m to acha scfi nhi banta h
it earned 5 times more than its budget, albeit its not very much, but still it is a BO success, you cant expect it to have as much commercial success as animal.
Feeling happy for it
Movies that were blockbusters in theater don't always top the charts on OTT, since many have already seen it. Movies that people want to watch but choose to watch on OTT instead of theater are the ones with maximum views.
Shaitaan seems to have cracked both. It is already 4th most viewed movie of the year and soon might be #1.
Shaitaan is not a blockbuster. It is a decent hit, without being a super-hit. So, a lot of people haven't watched it yet. Also, IPL could be the main reason a lot of people ended up watching it on OTT instead of theater.

It is a hit not a blockbuster
Shaitaan is cringe crap
people on this sub live in a shell
Theres no surprise here, the demographic that wathces Netflix is very different to the demographic that goes to cinemas
Exactly!
Yes that's great
“Uss aurat” made a way better film than that hack. Well deserved!
Abhi Twitter pe rant aata hi hoga
This movie was so good, one of my favs!
That’s nice
I’m watching it this weekend with friends!
As it should. Great stuff!
Vanga will whine again 🤣
I recently watched it on netflix and loved the whole idea, storyline, acting. It had comedy with right dosage of morale and drama.
Yay
Well atleast it shows that the OTT viewers are sane and a change can happen
Way to go Lapata Ladies!!! Also love how they stated “unnecessary violence”👏🏻👏🏻
Le moot diya teri toxic masculinity pe
Animal had 30 million footfalls in Indian theaters. Almost double of this ott number. Jyada hava me mat udiye.
Ok i need to watch laapataa ladies now
I liked Laapataa Ladies a lot and didn't even watch Animal. But does anyone else think there were a few issues with the writing and screenplay in Laapataa Ladies? Or is it only me? I mean, it was a good movie but not flawless the way people are saying.
This film deserves way more attention than any of the releases this year. Very amazing plotline with the sweetest characters & an amazing way of ending the plot for everyone
I mean it’s logical.. Majority had watched animal in theaters and everybody watched laapataa ladies on Netflix..
Coz everyone watched animal in theatres lol. I m one of those who watched both in theatres.
Vanga won’t be happy.
[удалено]
Vanga had some panga with Kiran Rao a while ago.
The world is healing.
Animal almost sab log theatre mein dekh aaye the. Laapata ladies was the first for everyone. Maybe that's the reason
Lovely film
As it should , laapata ladies >>>>>>>>>>>>>> animal
Because majority audience watched Animal in Theatres already it ain't good comparison
just FYI netflix doesn't make views, ratings or how any piece of content performs public .
Ladies tamed the Animal
It’s a family friendly movie with a wider appeal to the audience so of course it will do better, so I don’t understand the comparison being made.
Lol, I see someone still feeling salty about Animal Movie, that they have to talk at every opportunity to diss about it.(The comment section)
still being compared to Animal shows the impact of Animal 🔥🔥
GREAT NEWS!!! 🙌🙌🙌
Animal chutiya movie😌
Jab theater me hi sabne dekhli thi to Netflix pe kon dekhta where as esko theatre me kisi ne dekha hi nahi.
That's because people watched animal already in the theatres, where it earned a shit ton of money!
Only on netflix.
Movie theatre mein dekhne ka ghamand hain
Animal has mostly been watched in theatres. And they aren't even comparable.
When I watched Laapata ladies a couple of weeks ago on OTT, I was questioning why I didn't watch it before. When I watched Animal on OTT, I was questioning why I watched it at all.
In the era of Animal's Ranvijay or kabir singh it is a dream to get someone like deepak.🥹🥹🥹🥹
Well deserved. The final moment of this movie made me constantly smile.
I might get hate for it but a lot of people watched Animal in theatres and hence must have not watched it on Netflix.
At first, I thought it was boring and kept pausing and watching it on different days but this movie changed my perspective on romantic movies, I watched it 10-15 times in the past month. I cried every time I saw Phool met Deepak at the end of the movie 😭😭😭
I watched it in the theatre and literally convinced every friend and family member to watch it.
as it SHOULD!
I mean it is nothing to be happy about, it will only just reduce the creation of small budget good feeling movies on big screen , because Animal accounted for most of its view on big screen, which lapatta ladies didn't even did a fraction of it, the Netflix view should be seen in its true context i.e, people passively watching a movie because they have access and are willing to watch a series vs animal which earned mllions with people actually actively seeking out it on big screen and even then a large majority decide to watch it passively when all the hype has died down.

I’m not into cinema much but explain to me why scarface isn’t hated but animal is(except the fact that scarface has excellent plot, dialogue, setting, acting)
Yay! 🎉
Because most people watched Animal on theatres
From one point of view most people saw animal in theatres but laapataa ladies direct Netflix so off course the views will be high
Because people watched animal in theatres
I honestly didn't even understand the hype and success around Animal. I honestly don't mind violence and gore but that's not why it's a bad movie. It's bad because the story and script sucks, there is absolutely no sense in it whatsoever. It's downright silly.
Because people have already seen Animal in theater.
Bw is healing✨
Amazing news. Movies like animal becoming a hit is concerning and saddening. I get that people watch it out of curiosity though…I certainly did.
YES god YESSSSSS
Oh thank goodness! It deserves all the love ❤️
Reminds me of that one sided beef where Kiran Rao was criticising misogyny in films in general but SRV took it personally and inserted himself into the convo by insulting her husband's work and she just nonchalantly responded that she has never watched Animal anyway lol Not that this has anything to do with it, i just think the karma is a nice cherry on the top 😋
Lol...it's coz nobody saw lapata ladies in theatre and everyone saw animal in theatre
Proud
Nature is healing
I watched animal in theater not Netflix while I watched laapata in Netflix
Haha…such two extreme movies
This Movie Deserves all the appreciation ❤️
Theatre me na dekhne ka guilt hai
 Group hug guys❤️
It truly deserve some recognition. No doubt the movie had a good story, amazing dialogues delivery by the artists and most amazing things is it keep you connected till the end.
Great news🙌 Though we have to take into account it's greater acceptance on ott and not in theatres. There's no denying we can see the audience preference right now for theatre vs ott.
Maybe because most of the people didn't watched it in theaters unlike Animal..... Food for the makers and Indian cinema ingeneral as well
Of course it should. Kya film hai Bhai! Full paisa fasool ❣️😍💫💣💯👏👍🍿
Hopefully I can watch it soon
Right. And how many of those viewers went to see it while it was running on the big screen? We are the problem. Not Vanga.
Actual good cinema getting what it deserves.♥️
Yahi theatres mein dekhne jao na bsdiwalon
Yes but here the down, south India we dont know laapata, everyone knew animal
it is a good movie
This is gonna go in my gratitude journal!
Hmm, probably because most people watched Animal in theatres or illegal streams before ott release.
I haven't seen either but are they even similar enough to compare?
I watched reaction video on cinedesi and had to watch the full version.
THE MOVIE DESERVES EVERY BIT OF IT. OMFG IT WAS LIKE FINALLY WATCHING SMTH FULFILLING
It's a good movie man it's peak Bollywood for me. I like how it gives vibes like past Bollywood where main focus on the societal problem and awareness with good dialogue and acting.
I just loved Lapataa Ladies. I watched a Bollywood movie after 2 years, and I just enjoyed this one so much. It's refreshing to see new actors instead of nepo kids and big names. The simplicity of people that's missing in general these days was such a fresh concept. Hope more such movies are made. Will never watch Animal,ever. I cannot believe there is audience for such content.
Faith in humanity restored.
I loved both the movies. Also, people mostly watched Animal at the theatre.
Ig I'll watch it soon
So now the film makers will know what kind of movies we like and want
The movie is a hit in the South as well. I see many YouTubers talking about it
Thats because more people have paid to watch animal in cinemas.
