Sonu Sood On Fateh & Animal Comparisons

Meanwhile, ever since Fateh trailer had premiered, there have been comparisons of the movie with that of Ranbir Kapoor's Animal. Talking about it, Sonu told India Today Digital, "The problem was, we hired around 70-80 fighters for about three major action sequences. In a single shot, we show 70 people getting killed by my character. Now, we didn't have enough people for the remaining action sequences. Because we had already shown the faces of the fighters earlier, we decided to cast them again with masks. We considered the possibility of people thinking this looks like Animal, but it was a technical necessity. The fighters were brought in from Mexico and South Africa, and it wasn't feasible to replace them immediately. Recycling the same fighters was the most practical solution".
