On the first day of its release, the movie became the first ever Hindi film to touch the mark of $1 million. With a runtime of three hours and 21 minutes, the movie has Ranbir playing the role of Ranvijay aka Vijay Singh, a man who can go to any extent for his family, especially his father. Speaking specifically about Ranbir's character, the movie presents him as a ruthless man who kills men like mosquitoes. Animal movie review: Ranbir Kapoor's film is 'Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham on acid' Shomini Sen writes, ''Writer, editor, and director Sandeep Reddy Vanga had said in an interview that he would teach India how action films are made and he was not joking about it. Stylish and elaborately choreographed with a great background score, the action scenes are completely new to Bollywood. Especially a scene where hundreds of masked men come charging at Ranbir (dressed in a white kurta and dhoti) with first guns and then axes as our man-child protagonist goes gleefully charging at them with an Indian-made bazooka. It's a long scene where guns, violence, and gore have just been thrown in like it was being distributed at some store for free and you think that Vijay has finally done avenging the attack on his father. But it is just the first half and Vanga has more to showcase.''
