The excitement among fans of Ranbir Kapoor is palpable as anticipation builds for the forthcoming sequel to the action thriller ‘Animal.’ Following a viral outbreak of behind-the-scenes images from the set, fans are eagerly awaiting to see Kapoor’s intriguing portrayal of the character Aziz in the newly teased sequel, ‘Animal Park.’ These images, shared by celebrity hairstylist Aalim Hakim on Instagram, have generated significant buzz, fueling speculation and excitement about what’s to come.
Hakim’s Instagram post featured a series of gripping photos of Ranbir Kapoor, smeared with blood and exuding emotion from his eyes, capturing a raw intensity that left a lasting impression on viewers. “Ranbir Kapoor as Aziz in ANIMAL,” Hakim captioned. “These are a few pictures clicked by me on the sets of movie ANIMAL on the day of Aziz intro shoot. The best part for me in these pictures is the emotion you can see in Ranbir’s eyes.”
He further reminisced about the shoot, adding, “The looks of the film are gonna remain very close to my heart. I remember when Ranbir was just sitting next to me after he finished the shot, I requested him to allow me to click a few pictures as the official photographer had to leave early because of some emergency. The audience has given a lot of love to all of Ranbir’s looks in Animal, and Aziz’s character has made a solid impact.”
Credit was also given to the director, Sandeep Vanga Reddy, whom Hakim praised for bringing out the best in everyone on set. The creative synergy under Vanga’s direction has been a cornerstone of the film’s success, solidifying its place as one of the biggest blockbusters of 2023, despite some controversy over its alleged misogynistic depictions.
The movie, which starred Rashmika Mandanna, Anil Kapoor, and Bobby Deol alongside Kapoor, revolves around a troubling father-son relationship. Ranbir Kapoor’s character, Rannvijay Singh, embarks on a path of revenge following an assassination attempt on his father. The gripping narrative, combined with strong performances, garnered significant attention, and it ended with a post-credits scene that teased a sequel titled ‘Animal Park’. This scene hinted that Ranbir might return in a potential double role, further heightening anticipation among fans.
