And the one and only Anil Kapoor-smashing it as always! Such an inspiration. Congratulations to the entire cast-phenomenal performances that truly make the whole world come to life @tripti_dimri @shaktikapoor.

Animal screening

Alia Bhatt and her family had turned up at the screening of Ranbir Kapoor's much-awaited film Animal on Thursday. Alia was spotted in a customised T-shirt that featured Ranbir's Animal character. After watching Animal, as Alia and her family left the screening, paparazzi asked her to review Animal. The actor had then said the film was 'khatarnaak (dangerous)."

Earlier, during the trailer launch of the film in Delhi, Ranbir Kapoor was asked to give a description of Animal. He had then said, "Animal is basically the adult-rated Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham. If I had to describe this story in a line, then it's about a man who goes to any length to protect his family. That's what the core of the film is.”

Ranbir Kapoor's Animal was released in theatres worldwide on December 1. It also features Bobby Deol, Anil Kapoor and Rashmika Mandanna and is directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga. The film has been doing very well at the box office.
