On the auspicious occasion of Ugadi and Gudi Padwa, the team of Animals announced that actress Rashmika Mandanna will join its stellar cast. Helmed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga, which all stars Ranbir Kapoor, Anil Kapoor and Bobby Deol in lead roles, viewers will now see national crush Rashmika as the female lead in the film.
This role was earlier offered to Parineeti Chopra. However, after being offered Imtiaz Ali’s upcoming project, Chamkila, she had decided to back out. The news of Rashmika replacing Chopra had been doing the rounds for a while, and it was today that the makers officially confirmed the news. A Pinkvilla report quoted a source as saying, “They wanted a new cast instead of repeating RK’s pairing with another actress. Both feel that both RK and Rashmika are on screen with their chemistry in Animals. Will set fire to fire. Both share an interesting dynamic in the film.”
The crime drama has created a lot of anticipation among the audience even before it went on floors with its subtle yet powerful title teaser released and its associated names. The shooting of the film will begin this summer with an estimated release date of August 11, 2023. Producer Bhushan Kumar had confirmed that Ranbir will be seen in a violent avatar in the film.
Animal is produced by Bhushan Kumar and Krishan Kumar’s T-Series, Murad Khetani’s Cine1 Studio and Pranay Reddy Vanga’s Bhadrakali Pictures. The film is expected to go on floors this month after Ranbir wraps up the shooting of Luv Ranjan’s next.
Rashmika Mandanna is all set for her Bollywood debut with Mission Majnu, where she will be sharing screen space with Sidharth Malhotra. Apart from these two projects, Rashmika will also be seen in Goodbye with Amitabh Bachchan.
