While Ranbir Kapoor, Anil Kapoor, Rashmika Mandanna and Bobby Deol are receiving praises from all sides, it is the performance of actress Tripti Dimri that took everyone by surprise.
However, did you know that even Sara Ali Khan auditioned for the role of Sara in the Sandeep Reddy Vanga directorial? Yes, you read that right! According to an old report in Filmfare, during the audition process for 'Animal,' Sara expressed a strong interest in a role. Although Parineeti Chopra had already been selected as the lead, Sara auditioned for the second lead. Despite her hopeful outlook, it appeared that Sandeep Reddy Vanga, the director, was not particularly enthusiastic about casting her in the role.
The report further added that upon reviewing Sara Ali Khan's audition, Vanga was convinced that she wouldn't be a suitable fit for the role and might not effectively portray such a bold character. Subsequently, it was Tripti Dimri's audition that greatly impressed the team working on Animal, leading to her being selected and finalized for the part.
Tripti's bold scenes in the film with Ranbir was also leaked before the release of the movie, creating hysteria on social media.
As of now, Sandeep Reddy Vanga's film 'Animal' is proving to be a massive success at the box office, having already garnered an impressive Rs 360 crores in worldwide earnings.
