00:00 The annual movie featuring Ranbir Kapoor and Bobby Deol is creating a buzz on the internet

00:06 after the trailer release, with audiences raving about its intense fight scenes.

00:12 Ranbir's portrayal seems relentless, evoking a sense of suspense among viewers.

00:18 However, upon closer inspection of the trailer, there appears to be some subtle connections

00:23 to Hitler, although not directly linked but potentially inspired by his ideologies.

00:30 Two instances in the trailer hint at a possible Nazi connection.

00:34 The first is when Ranbir Kapoor delivers a speech to his entourage, raising his right

00:40 hand with a closed fist in the air, stating, "Jisne bhi papa pe goli chalai, Malbir Singh

00:46 pe goli chalai, main wada karta hu, I will slit his throat."

00:50 This action resembles the Nazi salute, which Hitler used himself.

00:55 However, the traditional Nazi salute involved extending the right arm straight with the

01:00 hand held flat in the air.

01:04 The second instance hints at the Nazi logo, the swastik, faintly visible in the background

01:09 as the crowd cheers at the end of Ranbir's speech.

01:13 Notably, the director tactfully avoids using the direct Nazi swastik and opts for the Indian

01:19 swastik instead.

01:21 The key difference lies in the presentation, with the Nazi swastik featuring arms at a

01:26 45-degree slant, while the Indian swastik is depicted with the base arm lying flat.

01:33 These subtle references in the movie suggest a connection with Nazi ideology or inspiration

01:38 drawn from it.

01:40 Even the characterization of Ranbir Kapoor's role might be influenced by Nazi ideologies.

01:47 For context, the Nazi party, which Hitler later joined, embraced nationalist, racist,

01:53 and anti-Semitic beliefs.

01:55 Following Hitler's involvement, he further propagated and expanded upon these ideas.

02:02 Hitler himself absorbed a racist worldview, classifying people into a hierarchy of races,

02:08 where some were deemed superior and others inferior.

02:12 He propagated the belief in the superiority of the German race, referred to as the Aryan

02:18 race.

02:19 The movie Animal will hit the theatres on December 1.

02:22 Thanks for watching.
