Rashmika Mandanna has also written a long note on Instagram Stories for team Animal. Reason? The actress wanted the world to know “how much I loved working on the sets of #Animal.” Rashmika, who has returned to Hyderabad for Pushp 2, said, “ Dear diary. Today.. hmm no actually last night I had a night shoot and I just wrapped up…I am back in Hyderabad and tonight I start work on Pushpa 2. But first I wanted to say a few things about how much I loved working on the sets of Animal. Initially na.. the film came so suddenly to me, was really surprising but I was extremely extremely excited about Animal. Because, of course, I wanted to work with the whole team. I think, I have shot for about 50 days now for this film.. and now that it's over, I am starting to feel one big void. I absolutely loved working with my boys to the extent that they have and will always have a special place in my heart. The whole team are such darlings ya.. everyone who I worked with on set are so professional and yet so kind-hearted and I in fact kept mentioning to them that I would've loveeeed to work with them for 1000 more times and I'd still be so happy.”
For director Sandeep Reddy Vanga, Rashmika Mandanna said, "So 1st Sandeep Reddy Vanga is awesome- everyone knows that he is so obsessed with his craft and character creation that the clarity he comes with for all the scenes and also the freedom he gives to artists is just absolutely amazing. 'My acting or performance depends directly andentirely on the director' is something I think you now know and so tomorrow if people like what they see of me in Animal - all credit goes to whom you know."
Rashmika Mandanna added that she was “super nervous” about working with Ranbir Kapoor. The actress added that “God has really taken his time to make him [Ranbir] perfect ya. She said, "Rkaaaaaay. I think initially because he is #ranbirkapoor, I was super nervous but my god!! - Our little secret.. god has really taken his time to make him perfect ya. Brilliant actor Amaaaaazing human -Everything else - Crazy no? Love it.. but what a beautiful human he is ya..I only wish the best for him for life and woahhhh...wait! Haveeeee to say this, RK in Animal is (bomb emoji)."
The actress added that she is “super duper excited for the team”. For Anil Kapoor, she said, “I got to work with Anil Kapoor sir also...he's also been so nice to me.. Animal team.. they rock ya. I love them... I loved every day that I shot with them. They are special to me. Big bigger biggest hugs to all of them. I hope I get to spend more time with the team but if I don't .. at least you will know how special they are to me.. every word I've said here I meant it. I want to tell the team - 'Thank you for being so awesome'."
Animal also stars Bobby Deol. The film will be released on August 11.
