Sandeep Reddy Vanga has his focus on making Animal a masterpiece. In his second Hindi directorial after Kabir Singh (2019), he directs Anil Kapoor, Ranbir Kapoor, Rashmika Mandanna, Bobby Deol and Tripti Dimri. The initial release date of the action thriller was August 11, 2023. However, due to pending VFX work and other post-production touches, the film has been pushed to December 1, 2023.
The official announcement was made by Sandeep today. He issued a video statement informing the reason behind postponing Animal to December. In the video, he said, "I'm making this video for two reasons. One is that I'm going to explain why we aren't able to achieve the film release on August 11. Another one is here, and I'm going to announce the new release date. See, coming back to the topic of why we are able to release the film on August 11, the only reason is that it might sound like a generic answer, but the fact is that it is the only quality. See, I'm not going to explain to you how the post-production work has been delayed. So it might bore you. I'll cut it short. I'll give you one example. For example, there are seven songs in the film, and when seven songs are multiplied by five languages, they become 35 songs with different sets of lyrics and singers, so it's going to take a little more time than what I've actually put in for. I've lately realised this, or I wouldn't have released the pre-teaser. Thank you so much for the pre-teaser response. A few of them said that it is not and will not be in the film, but it will be in the film; it is a cutout of a film episode. Thank you so much for the response."
He further added, "Coming back to the songs, whatever kind of lyrical value is achieved in Hindi, I need to give the same kind of lyrical value in all different languages. For that, I really need to spend energy, time, and everything else to get it into all different languages, because when it gets released in all different languages, I don't want you to get the feeling that it's a Hindi film dubbed into a Tamil or Telugu film. So it has to be like the regional cinema. So for that, we are taking time, and there's no other reason."
Sandeep promised that the audience will get to see Ranbir's 'vishwaroop'. "The most favourable date that we have found is December 1 this year. All I can promise you is that we will have the best quality on December 1. We'll come with the best quality in terms of video, audio, and everything. This is a big film, not just in terms of the star cast; it's also rich in content. It's a very emotional film. Aa jaiye theatre mein December 1, Ranbir Kapoor ka vishwaroop dekhne," he concluded his statement.
