Ranbir Kapoor-starrer Animal directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga hit the theatres on December 1. While the film heavy on violence has been breaking records at the box office, there is an active conversation and debate regarding the film and its politics on social media. Just like Vanga`s previous film `Kabir Singh`, `Animal` has also triggered some people with its violence and gender politics. Amid this, an old interview of actor Manoj Bajpayee sharing his thoughts on morality and social responsibility in cinema has gone viral.
In an interview with Mid-day, Manoj was answering a question on social responsibility of filmmakers. "Lately , I have been seeing that creative work is being burdened by people`s morality. When it is becoming jingoistic and it is a good film , you don`t point fingers at it. There is a film, I don`t want to name, it`s a violent love story like Kabir Singh. There are 50 films that have been made in the past where the hero has not been nice to the heroine. When I am doing a kissing scene, I am not getting Manoj Bajpayee`s morality into the scene; I am playing the character. It is a character which is there in the script, it is part of the society. If I am convinced with the realism of the script and the scene, I will go ahead and put all my believability into the scene."
