Ranbir Kapoor's latest film, Animal, has roared its way to the top by dethroning Bollywood bigwigs at the US box office. With a hefty $12 million in its kitty, Animal has become the 5th highest grossing Indian film ever in the USA, surpassing Aamir Khan's "Dangal" and Ranveer Singh's "Padmaavat."

This success for the animals is an important turning point for Kapoor, who has been through a series of box-office debacles over the past few years. This action-packed drama has clicked with the American viewer, who hungers for such ferocious comeback stories. And the wider distribution of the film compared to Kapoor's earlier outings paid rich dividends.

But the triumph of Animal is not solely Kapoor's alone. It marks the growth of Indian cinema in the US, where the market slowly expands. This opens new doors to several more diversified stories from India and their talent at international levels.

Although celebrations are due, it's still early days. Blockbusters like RRR, Jawan, and Pathaan await their turn, and hence the box office race remains rather unpredictable. But Animal's achievement stands as a testament to how a compelling story delivered by an actor par excellence elevates the appeal manyfold.

So does the animal hold its ground? Well, only time will tell. But one thing's for sure: the roar of the beast has been heard loud and clear across the US, leaving a mark on Bollywood's global journey.
