The pan-India film, directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga of “Arjun Reddy” and “Kabir Singh” fame, also stars Anil Kapoor, Bobby Deol and Rashmika Mandanna.

The 2.26 minute-long teaser of the crime drama, shared on social media, appears to show Ranbir Kapoor and Anil Kapoor’s characters in a troubled father-son relationship.

“‘Animal’ is a cinematic wildfire that’s sure to take you on a wild ride through a realm where thrill and passion collide,” the makers said in a press release.

In a previous interview with PTI, Ranbir Kapoor had called “Animal” a “new territory” for him.

“It’s a crime drama and a father-son story. It’s something audiences don’t expect me to do. It has got shades of grey. He is very alpha, again something I’m not. So, I’m looking forward to it,” the actor had said.
