Ranbir Kapoor and Rashmika Mandanna as lead roles in ‘Animal’

Ranbir Kapoor had discussed his character in the movie and stated that it is one of the darkest roles he has ever played, "Working with Sandeep has been such an enriching experience for me as an actor because he is so original.

It is just the character, his mind and the way he operates. His psyche is very dark."
