Animal - the announcement teaser of the film is as intriguing as the title. Animal marks filmmaker Sandeep Reddy Vanga's second directorial venture in Bollywood after the controversial Kabir Singh. The cast of Animal is headlined by Ranbir Kapoor and also includes actors such as Anil Kapoor, Parineeti Chopra and Bobby Deol. The teaser of Animal, dropped on Monday, introduces the film's cast. Anil Kapoor also revealed the release date of Animal to be Dusshera next year. The teaser features a one-sided conversation in Ranbir Kapoor's voice, who appears to have a conversation with his father, hinting that Animal is a family drama.
In his narration, Ranbir talks about role reversal in their next lives and tells his father to take birth as the son next time, so that he can step into his shoes. "Papa, agle janam mein aap mera beta banna. Phir dekhna main aapko kaise pyaar karta hun aur seekhna aap. Kyun ki uske agle janam mein main beta banunga aur aap papa." Ranbir Kapoor's raspy voice in the Animal teaser heightens the mystery to a whole new level. It ends with the sound of incessant gunfire.
Animal will be produced by Bhushan Kumar and Krishan Kumar (T-Series), Pranay Reddy Vanga (Bhadrakali Pictures) and Murad Khetani (Cine1 Studios). Watch the teaser of Ranbir Kapoor's Animal here:
