"During the pandemic, we all got some time to introspect and choose films"
Actor Ranbir Kapoor has started the new year with a banger of an announcement that has left all Bollywood fans buzzing.
The actor will be seen in a family-drama film titled Animal which will be helmed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga, the director of Kabir Singh.
Along with Ranbir, the film also stars Panineeti Chopra, Anil Kapoor and Bobby Deol in lead roles.
The movie’s first look was launched on YouTube with a music video showcasing the title of the film and some dialogues that give the audience a glimpse into what it’s about.
The teaser trailer had Ranbir’s voice-over and power-packed background music by Harshavardhan Rameshwar, who has composed music for both of Vanga’s films Arjun Reddy and Kabir Singh.

Parineeti Chopra took to Twitter to show her excitement on the upcoming venture. She wrote:
“It keeps getting bigger and better! 2021 you already have my (heart)”
“Presenting #ANIMAL.”
While Anil Kapoor tweeted:
“Oh boy! The new year just gets better with this whistle! Presenting, #Animal, can’t wait for our journey to begin.”
Bobby Deol also used the social media platform to deliver the good news. He wrote:
“It’s time for double celebration… 2021 belongs to #Animal & this power-packed team! Let the whistle go louder.”
In the teaser, Ranbir’s character can be heard asking his father to be his son in his next birth so that he can express his love towards him.
However, the actor’s monologue has an ominous ring to it that makes us think the film is going to be dark and mysterious.
