Mansi Taxak essayed the role of one of Bobby Deol's characters, Abrar's wives. In a recent interview with Zoom, Mansi Taxak got candid about a scene towards the end of the movie where Abrar is seen subjecting her character to marital rape. In the interview, Mansi touched on the topic and asserted that absolutely no assault was happening. However, she also stated that Abrar was also 'twisted' and ‘filled with animal instincts’ which was reason enough for the character to make his decisions next. 

Animal, helmed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga and starring Ranbir Kapoor and Bobby Deol, while being hailed as one of the biggest hits of the years, has also been called out by netizens over its mysoginy and toxic masculinity depiction, which could be harmful to impressionable minds in the country. The movie has grossed over 500 crores worldwide.
