If the trailer is any indication, Ranbir Kapoor’s Animal<\/em> will be one of the most violent films of 2023.<\/p>\n

The violence is not just physical but also emotional, as Ranbir’s dysfunctional relationship with his onscreen father Anil Kapoor shows us.<\/p>\n

Do we love violence in our films?<\/p>\n

Joginder Tuteja<\/strong> looks at recent violent Bollywood films and how they did at the box office.<\/p>\n

Baahubali – The Conclusion<\/em> [Hindi]
Box office collection: Rs 511 crore\/Rs 5.11 billion<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Baahubali: The Conclusion<\/em>, one of the biggest blockbusters, had a liberal dose of violence, as Prabhas’ Baahubali fought to avenge his tortured mother against his cruel uncle, Rana Daggubati’s Bhallaladeva.<\/p>\n

The scene where Baahubali beheads a man still sends shock waves.<\/p>\n

Bodies drop dead like nine pins as we get introduced to all kinds of weaponry when the climax takes place on a battlefield.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

KGF – Chapter 2<\/em> [Hindi]
Box office collection: Rs 434.70 crore\/Rs 4.35 billion<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

‘Violence violence violence – I hate violence’ is what Yash claims in KGF – Chapter 2<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Yet, his acts in the film are anything but non-violent, as he brings out hundreds of AK-47s to take on the menacing Sanjay Dutt.<\/p>\n

One of the most violent films in India remains one of the biggest box office successes.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Padmaavat<\/em>
Box office collection: Rs 302.15 crore\/Rs 3.02 billion<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Ranveer Singh went all out to unleash his wild side as Alauddin Khilji in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Padmaavat<\/em>.<\/p>\n

He pursued Deepika Padukone’s titular queen and killed her husband Shahid Kapoor in bloody battle.<\/p>\n

But the climax where Deepika and all the women in the kingdom commit jauhar<\/em> is perhaps even more spine-chilling.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Kabir Singh<\/em>
Box office collection: Rs 278.24 crore\/Rs 2.78 billion<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The violence here was not as physical as it was emotional.<\/p>\n

Kabir Singh<\/em> seemed to glorify gender-based violence and justify Kabir Singh’s — played by Shahid Kapoor — abusive relationship with his girlfriend Preeti (Kiara Advani).<\/p>\n

His toxic masculinity was so alarming, it started a lot of conversations at the time of its release.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

RRR<\/em> [Hindi]
Box office collection: Rs 274.31 crore\/Rs 2.74 billion<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

S S Rajamouli’s RRR<\/em> was peppered with violence, as NTR Jr fought with a tiger and Ram Charan battled hundreds of protestors.<\/p>\n

The violence wasn’t gory, but there was enough of blood.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Kashmir Files<\/em>
Box office collection: Rs 253 crore\/Rs 2.53 billion<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The violence in The Kashmir Files<\/em> was terrifying, as Director Vivek Agnihotri showed chilling moments of a genocide. The climax was particularly brutal when a woman’s body was sliced in a saw mill.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Rowdy Rathore<\/em>
Box office collection: Rs 133 crore\/Rs 1.33 billion<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The posters and trailers of Rowdy Rathore<\/em> screamed, ‘Don’t Angry Me’ and Director Prabhu Deva showed that in the film too.<\/p>\n

Whenever Akshay Kumar got angry, he would not hold back his punches.<\/p>\n

If villain Nasser’s army of goons spread terror in the village, Rowdy Rathore responded the same way.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Agneepath<\/em> (New)
Box office collection: Rs 115 crore\/Rs 1.15 billion<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

When Amitabh Bachchan’s Agneepath<\/em> released in 1990, it was among the most violent Hindi films.<\/p>\n

When Director Karan Malhotra gave us his version of the film in 2012, and cast Hrithik Roshan, the violence got worse.<\/p>\n

In fact, the sheer presence of Rishi Kapoor was frightening, as he unleashed terror while Sanjay Dutt was just pure evil.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Ghajini<\/em>
Box office collection: Rs 114 crore\/Rs 1.14 billion<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

South directors know just how to present violence on screen, and A R Murugadoss managed it perfectly when he remade his Tamil hit Ghajini<\/em> with Aamir Khan.<\/p>\n

The sequence of Asin’s murder was terrifying, and when Aamir avenged her, the violence went up a notch.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Pushpa<\/em> (Hindi)
Box office collection: Rs 108.50 crore\/Rs 1.09 billion<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

‘<\/em>Pushpa naam sunke <\/em>flower samjhe kya? Flower nahi, fire hai main, Jhukunga nahi<\/em>.’<\/p>\n

When Allu Arjun says these lines in Telugu, you know it’s a bomb waiting to explode.<\/p>\n

Pushpa<\/em> unleashes a series of events, where one violent sequence follows another at an alarming pace.<\/p>\n
