When Anshul Chauhan signed Animal, she was certain that Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s directorial venture would be an experience to cherish, but, little did she know that her performance would bring her as much attention as it did. Earning praise as Ranbir Kapoor’s younger sister in the film, Chauhan acknowledges that the film is “doing the most for me because the project worked”.

“I featured in Tejas, which released last month.  I played a substantial part in it but the film didn’t do well. I had more expectations as an actor from Tejas, but [I am coming to realise that] a project has to work for an actor to get noticed,” she says. She believes her collaboration with Kapoor is a result of manifestation.
