Animal boasts of a stellar cast. The film is headlined by Ranbir Kapoor, Anil Kapoor, Bobby Deol and Parineeti Chopra. Animal has been creating quite a buzz ever since it was announced.
The makers of Animal shared the film's announcement video on January 1, 2021. In the video, we hear Ranbir Kapoor's voiceover talking about his relationship with his father. He says, "Papa, agle janam mein aap mera beta banna. Fir dekhna main aapko kaise pyaar karta hun aur sikhna aap. Kyunki uske agle janam mein vapis main beta aur aap papa. Tab na papa, apni tarah se pyaar karna, meri tarah se nahi. Aap samajh rahe ho na papa? Bas aap samajh lo toh kafi hai."Ranbir is likely to play an intense, dark character in Animal. This role will be different from Ranbir's past roles.
