Animal features Ranbir in a never-seen-before avatar and director said it was a pleasure to watch Kapoor transform into the total antithesis of himself in the role of Arjun Singh. Further praising the actor, he told PTI, “Ranbir is a great actor, he is in a different league altogether. He is very original. I feel he is a mix of so many actors, it is wrong to compare to other actors, (But) I feel he is a mix of Robert De Niro, Al Pacino and Kamal Haasan. This man (Ranbir) has no limitation.” Well, the director is elated by the reception of the movie’s trailer and is eager to see how the public will react to his film. The film has received A certificate from CBFC and its runtime is 3 hours 21 minutes.
