Animal ending and post-credits scene, explained: Will the Ranbir Kapoor starrer get a sequel?

Disclaimer: This article contains spoilers from Animal.

Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s Animal starring Ranbir Kapoor, Rashmika Mandanna, Anil Kapoor, Bobby Deol and others, arrived in cinemas today. The action thriller unveils a father-son story. Towards the end of the revenge-fueled action, the film drops two post-credits scenes. And it looks like a sequel is in the works.

What happens in the post-credits scenes of Animal?

Animal ends with Ranbir Kapoor’s Ranvijay or Viijay Singh finding out that Bobby Deol’s Abrar Haque was the one trying to get his father – Anil Kapoor’s Balbir Singh, murdered. Vijay defeats Abrar but there is a larger scheme in motion to take the Singh family down. One of Abrar’s brothers, Aziz, has been getting surgery to look exactly like Vijay.

In the first post-credits scene, Aziz enters with two butcher knives. He looks at Triptii Dimri’s Zoya to confirm if he looks like Vijay before he proceeds to violently kill one out of two of Vijay’s men who are tied up in a bathroom. In reaction, Zoya rushes out to vomit. A blood-drenched Aziz tells Zoya that her vomiting might mean she is pregnant. He tells her that if the child doesn’t look like him (and Vijay) that means he is the father. After this exchange, Aziz returns to kill the second man. We then see text that reads, “Animal Park” appear on the screen along with a “visit soon” hinting at a sequel. It looks like Sandeep Reddy Vanga has future plans for the characters in Animal.

The next scene is a black-and-white shot that sees an aged Vijay talking to a crowd during a celebration of the Singh family business’ milestone. Gesturing at the camera he points towards his crotch, referencing a story he narrated at the start of the film. Fans who have watched the film will know what it means.

So far, news of an Animal sequel film has not been announced. But the unveiling of Animal Park hints at a return where Vijay and Aziz might go up against each other, continuing the violent family feud.

Animal is currently in theatres.
