He is a very calm person. I remember when I used to write rageful scenes, I would ask him so many times, 'Ranbir, when do you get angry?' He would say, 'I don't get angry, and Sandeep this is the 7th or 9th time you are asking me this'.As an actor, Ranbir Kapoor has no limitations, says filmmaker Sandeep Reddy Vanga, who believes he has presented the star in a never-seen-before avatar in their upcoming film movie revolves around a father and son and their troubled bond, played by Anil Kapoor and Ranbir. It is set against the backdrop of extreme bloodshed in the underworld.The director, best known for Vijay Devarakonda-starrer "Arjun Reddy" and its Hindi remake "Kabir Singh", starring Shahid Kapoor, said it was a pleasure to watch Kapoor transform into the total antithesis of himself in the role of Arjun Singh in "Animal"." Vanga said he was introduced to Kapoor's work through "Rockstar", in which the actor played the role of a musician struggling to find himself, spiritually and artistically. "I saw two shows of 'Rockstar' on the same day. I loved him and I told him about this. I never thought I would get to work with him. As a concept film, this is my second film. I'm glad I got to work with him this early. He had called me saying, 'We should work (together)'.This is after 'Kabir had actually sent me a text message after 'Arjun Reddy’, and I had not seen his message as it came from an unknown number. It was such a mistake. I was so happy when I learnt about it." The movie also stars Bobby Deol and Rashmika Mandanna.Speaking about Bobby Deol, Vanga said Deol was always the first choice for the movie."He is a great guy. From day one, we had Bobby in mind. I had called him in 2020 or 2021, he was promoting 'Class of 83'. For one of the scenes where he is bare-chested, we shot it in Scotland in minus three degrees. He came, he did the shot," he added.Produced by Kumar and Krishan Pictures, "Animal" will release theatrically on December in Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam. Vanga is happy with the reception the movie's teaser has received and said he is eager to see how the public will react when "Animal" opens in theatres next month."I'm so happy that everybody is liking it.
