Bobby Deol hit the ball out of the park as Abrar in Sandeep Reddy Vanga's Animal. He plays the antagonist opposite Ranbir Kapoor in the crime thriller. Despite having a brief screen time, the actor ensured a lasting impression. Apart from his performance, the audience is loving his entry sequence where he dances to the song Jamal Kudu at his wedding. There's a glass of liquor placed on his head and he balances that while dancing.
Talking about his acclaimed entry sequence, Bobby said in an interview with Bollywood Spy, "He (Sandeep Reddy Vanga) had made me listen to the music beforehand. He has got a great sense of music. He has got a great sense of everything about filmmaking. He found the song from somewhere and told me ‘I will play this in your introduction.’"
Bobby further revealed that the dance step was his idea. "When we started shooting, the choreographer said, ‘You do it.’ I was like, ‘What will I do?’ I started dancing and he told me, 'No, No. Don’t do it like Bobby Deol.’ Then Saurabh, who plays my brother, I told him, ‘Can you do and show? How would you do it?’ Then I suddenly remembered the time when I was small and we used to go to Punjab. I remembered how we used to get drunk and keep glasses on our heads. I never understood why we did it. It suddenly came in my mind and I did that. Sandeep liked it," he added.
Animal is one of the highest-grossing films of 2023. It also stars Anil Kapoor, Rashmika Mandanna and Triptii Dimri.
