On the work front, Ranbir Kapoor is currently gearing up for the release of his film 'Animal' directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga. The film which also stars Anil Kapoor, Bobby Deol, and Rashmika Mandanna was scheduled to release on August 11. However, a few days back, the makers announced that the release of the film has been postponed to December 1.
T-Series took to their Twitter handle and shared a video of director Sandeep Reddy Vanga explaining the delay in the release of the film. The director said that the post production of the film is taking longer and he does not want to compromise on the quality of the film. Giving an example, he said that there are 7 songs in the film and is being released in five languages. He said that they are individually working on 35 songs as they do not want to make the songs sound like they are a dubbed version of a Hindi song/movie. The director also thanked fans for the response to the pre-teaser and also clarified that the pre-teaser is a part of the film. After the release of the pre-teaser there were reports that the sequence is only for promotional purpose. He also said that 'Animal' is a big film in terms of not only budget but content and emotional quotient. The filmmaker is known for delivering the hit film 'Arjun Reddy' in Telugu and its Hindi remake 'Kabir Singh'
