Animal: Why Did the Superstar Reject?
Fans are speculating how Mahesh Babu might have portrayed the depth of emotion displayed by Ranbir Kapoor in Animal had he taken up the role.
On December 1st, a Pan India film featuring Ranbir Kapoor and directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga is scheduled to be released in five languages across the globe. With Bobby Deol playing a formidable villain and Anil Kapoor playing the father, the film centers on the relationship between a father and son.
Interestingly, Sandeep Reddy Vanga had initially narrated the story to superstar Mahesh Babu. However, Mahesh Babu felt a deep few connections to the wild character and emotional aspects, feeling it might not suit him well, leading him to opt out of the project.
Yet, with the recent release of the trailer, fans are expressing a sense of regret on social media, suggesting that if Mahesh Babu had taken the role, it could have elevated the movie to the next level. Comparisons are drawn, likening Ranbir Kapoor's character in Animal to an extreme version of Mahesh Babu's role in 'BusinessMan'.
There have been instances in the past where Mahesh Babu declined movies due to his not perfect connection with the stories, some of which later turned out to be blockbuster hits, including Allu Arjun's Pushpa.
Fans are speculating how Mahesh Babu might have portrayed the depth of emotion displayed by Ranbir Kapoor in Animal had he taken up the role. The discussions and comments circulating on social media suggest that Mahesh Babu's presence could have potentially added another dimension to the film's emotional intensity.
