Animal Movie Crossed Salaar on Netflix and Got Record Viewership!
In a surprising turn of events, Ranbir Kapoor’s “Animal” has emerged as the unexpected victor on the popular OTT platform Netflix, overshadowing Prabhas’s highly anticipated “Salaar: Part 1 – The Ceasefire” and achieving unprecedented viewership milestones. Despite initial trends suggesting Salaar’s dominance, “Animal” has swiftly risen to prominence, capturing the top spot and setting new records for viewership.
Before its release on Netflix, Salaar had enjoyed a brief stint at the No. 1 position, only to be dethroned by the overwhelming success of “Animal.” The shift in rankings has seen Salaar’s Telugu version slide to No. 3, with its Tamil counterpart trailing at No. 10. Regrettably, the Malayalam and Kannada versions failed to secure spots in the Top 10 rankings.
The staggering viewership figures paint a clear picture of “Animal’s” dominance, with the film amassing a staggering 20.8 million hours of watch time within just three days of its release across all languages. This feat is further underscored by its total views, which stand at an impressive 6.2 million—a testament to its widespread appeal and captivating storytelling.

In comparison, “Salaar” managed to accumulate 10.3 million hours of watch time over a span of ten days, albeit restricted to its Telugu version, with total views reaching 3.5 million. Notably, “Salaar” was not released in a Hindi version, a factor that may have contributed to its comparatively lower numbers. Nonetheless, the commendable performance of Ranbir Kapoor and director Sandeep Reddy Vanga underscores the film’s enduring popularity and impact.
The resounding success of “Animal” on Netflix is a testament to the star power of Ranbir Kapoor and the directorial prowess of Sandeep Reddy Vanga, solidifying their positions as formidable forces in cinema. As the industry continues to witness dynamic shifts in audience preferences and consumption patterns, the triumph of “Animal” stands as a compelling example of the power of engaging storytelling and star-studded performances to captivate viewers on a global scale.
