Sandeep Reddy Vanga had unveiled the teaser of Ranbir Kapoor, Anil Kapoor, Rashmika Mandanna, Triptii Dimri and Bobby Deol starrer Animal last month. It had received an encouraging response from the audience, and had generated great buzz for its August release date. However, the director recently announced that post-production will take some more time, which is why they have pushed its theatrical release to December 1, 2023. Interestingly, Meghna Gulzar and Ronnie Screwvala’s Sam Bahadur headlined by Vicky Kaushal, Sanya Malhotra and Fatima Sana Shaikh is already slated to release on the same date.

We are a film on one of the greatest men to have served his country and we hope audiences support us totally.
