RWDY's Instagram page carried the brand's relaunch announcement. The caption read, "It's time to reclaim our supremacy. Made in India. For the World. The takeover launches with our 1st collection- Winter ‘23. Dropping this December (sic)."
During the promotions of Animal on Nandamuri Balakrishna's Unstoppable With NBK, the veteran actor asked director Sandeep Reddy Vanga and Rashmika to choose a film between Animal and Arjun Reddy. The latter starred Vijay Deverakonda in the titular role. Ranbir Kapoor teased her by asking Rashmika to pick who is a better actor between him and her 'real hero', Vijay.
Nandamuri Balakrishna then asked Sandeep to call Vijay. That's when Ranbir playfully said, "Sir, let Rashmika call, Vijay won't pick his (Sandeep's) call." However, Vijay didn't answer any of their calls. Later, he dialed Sandeep and then he handed it over to Rashmika. Vijay asked her, "What's up, re?" She warned him that the call had been put on speaker.
When Rashmika revealed Arjun Reddy was one of the first films she watched after moving to Hyderabad, Ranbir teased his co-star by saying Sandeep met her at the success party of the film on Vijay's terrace for the first time. She blushed and said, "It’s not necessary to give all this information."
Animal also stars Ranbir Kapoor, Anil Kapoor, Bobby Deol and Tripti Dimri. The crime drama releases in theatres on December 1, 2023.
