Three years ago, the film “Animal,” directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga and starring Ranbir Kapoor, made waves at the box office, setting numerous records. The film garnered over ₹915 crores globally and has continued to be a significant topic of discussion among fans and critics alike. In a recent interview, Srinath Maganti, who played the role of Rashmika Mandanna’s brother in the movie, shared his unforgettable experience working alongside Kapoor.
Maganti praised Ranbir Kapoor for his dedication and work ethic, highlighting the legacy of talent that runs in Kapoor’s family. With grandfather Raj Kapoor and father Rishi Kapoor being major stars in the Indian film industry, Ranbir has carved out his niche as a leading actor, continuing the family tradition. According to Maganti, Kapoor approaches his work with a strong sense of commitment, often bringing a large team to the set with him.
One of the delightful quirks mentioned by Maganti was Kapoor’s habit of bringing a plate full of snacks, including healthy chips, biscuits, and chocolates, to the set. This plate isn’t just for him; he ensures that everyone around him can enjoy the treats. “Whenever he arrives, he brings along a plate full of goodies, and anyone who’s hungry can help themselves,” Maganti recounted. He shared a humorous incident where he picked up a snack from the plate only to be cautioned by another crew member, who jokingly referred to it as “Sir’s.” When Ranbir overheard the conversation, he playfully intervened, telling the crew member not to be foolish and to let Maganti enjoy the snacks.
This camaraderie and warmth displayed by Kapoor reflect his personality off-screen, showcasing not just his talent but also his ability to connect with those around him. The actor is currently busy with his role in the upcoming film “Ramayana,” with the first part set to be released during this Diwali. The second installment is expected to follow in the next year.
In addition to his current projects, Kapoor will also be seen in the sequel to “Animal,” titled “Animal Park.” Fans are eagerly anticipating this continuation of the story, which promises to delve deeper into the characters and plot that captivated audiences in the original film. With a busy schedule ahead and a loyal fan base, Ranbir Kapoor continues to be a shining star in the Indian cinema landscape.
As the film industry gears up for the festive season, all eyes will be on Kapoor’s upcoming projects, with hopes that they will not only match but exceed the success of “Animal.” His journey and experiences, as shared by his co-stars, remind us of the camaraderie that often exists behind the scenes, making the magic of cinema even more special.
