Animal Movie: Tripti Dimri has addressed the controversy surrounding Ranbir Kapoor’s character Vijay Singh asking her to ‘lick my shoe’ in the film.

In what is being dubbed as “the most problematic” scene of Animal, Ranbir Kapoor’s character Vijay Singh asks Zoya Riaz, played by Tripti Dimri, to lick his shoe to prove that she truly loves him, after she is revealed as a mole. Now, Tripti has addressed the controversy surrounding the scene in question.

“It reminded me of what my acting coach had told me, the golden rule: Never judge your character,” Tripti told Indian Express.com in an interview. “The characters you are playing, the character your c0-actor is playing, all are human and humans have good and bad side. An actor must be prepared to play characters across the spectrum of good, bad and ugly, but if you judge a character’s motivations, thoughts, you won’t be able to play it with honesty. So that’s what I kept in mind.”

She continued, “I also thought that here was a woman who talks about killing his wife, father, kids, the entire family… If someone tells me that, I will perhaps beat that person! Here, he does ask her to do that (lick his shoe) but also walks away later. He clearly is going through a lot of these (intense thoughts). Later when his cousins asks her what they should do with me, he says ‘Let her go wherever she wants to.’”

Starring Ranbir Kapoor, Rashmika Mandanna and Anil Kapoor, Animal features numerous scenes which have been receiving a huge backlash on social media. Some people are making strong arguments against nearly every element of the movie and labelling it “sexist” especially with respect to its treatment of women.
