Sandeep Vanga, who initially offered the film to Mahesh Babu, refused to be a part of it, claiming that it was too dark for him and his fans might not accept the actor in such a grey role. Well, later, the filmmaker went to Ranbir Kapoor, and he said yes to it. And look at the final cut of the film. Can you imagine anyone else apart from Ranbir for this film? No right? That’s the magic RK brings to his roles, be it in any film; he gives his 100 percent, and Animal is definitely one of his most challenging films as it’s his first in a grey and dark role.

Ranbir, in one of his interviews, spoke about his experience in doing Animal, saying this film has forced him to come out of his comfort zone. “It’s a new territory for me. It’s a crime drama and a father-son story. It’s something audiences don’t expect me to do. It has shades of grey. He is very alpha, something I’m not. So, I’m looking forward to it.”.
