Missing Kiss, Extended Cut Leaves Fans Disappointed: Animal On Netflix Sparks Discontent Among X Users
An extended cut of the blockbuster family crime drama Animal, featuring a kiss between Ranbir Kapoor and Bobby Deol, was promised by director Sandeep Reddy Vanga for its release on Netflix India.
Fans, anticipating the OTT release to relive the theatrical experience and watch the extended cut, were disappointed when the Netflix version failed to deliver any additional content.

No extended cut in Animal Movie
Upon the release of Animal on Netflix India, fans were disappointed to discover that the runtime remained unchanged from its theatrical version at 3 hours and 24 minutes.
Adding to the letdown, the climactic showdown on the airstrip, featuring Ranbir Kapoor's protagonist Rannvijay and Bobby Deol's antagonist Abrar, lacked the anticipated 'kiss' promised by director Sandeep Reddy Vanga after the theatrical release.
In an interview with Galatta Plus, Sandeep mentioned, "Yes, actually there was a kiss. Bobby will kiss Ranbir, a kiss on the cheek, and say, 'Bhai, I didn't even spend one day with my father,' and he'll go back and open his zip. It was superb when we were shooting, but I felt like the kiss was diluting the zip. Why I removed it was because Bobby sir gave this expression with a smirk, and a tear falls down his cheek. I felt that was a bigger cinematic high than coming and kissing." He then assured that the kiss would be part of the extended cut on Netflix India, reported Hindustan Times.
Reactions to the missing 'extended cut'
Expressing disappointment at the missing extended cut, X (formerly Twitter) users shared their discontent. One post read, "Animal extended cut is a scam lol. Original runtime 3H23M. Netflix runtime is 3H24M (eyeroll emojis)." Another comment questioned, "Where is the extended cut version of Animal on Netflix? It was supposed to be a 3h and 44m run time right?"
