Ranbir Kapoor
Back in Mumbai after the teaser launch of his passion project Brahmastra, Ranbir Kapoor has dived headlong into the universe of Animal. The actor has kick-started a two-week schedule of Sandeep Reddy Vanga's directorial offering in the city today. The first leg of the gangster-based drama - also starring Anil Kapoor, Bobby Deol and Rashmika Mandanna - was conducted in Manali in late April, followed by a stint in Chembur. Now, one hears that the action has shifted to south Mumbai.
A source reveals that Vanga will focus on the scenes featuring Ranbir and Deol in the ongoing stint. "They will shoot in areas around Sophia College at Pedder Road. With Anil sir keeping busy with the promotions for JugJugg Jeeyo, the team has decided to can Ranbir's solo scenes first. Following that, Bobby will join him for some crucial scenes. The director has also lined up some action sequences that will be filmed towards the end of the spell," says the source.
Vanga's offering - his second Hindi film after the successful Kabir Singh (2019) - is said to revolve around a gangster family, with Anil playing Ranbir's father and Mandanna, his wife. After the Mumbai leg is wrapped up, the team will head to Europe for an extensive schedule.
