On Sunday, Ranbir Kapoor and Rashmika Mandanna were spotted returning to Mumbai after a short shooting spell of Animal in Manali. After a three-day break, director Sandeep Reddy Vanga resumed his place behind the camera yesterday to kick off the Mumbai schedule. The prep began early morning in Chembur where the unit will be filming for the next two days.

A source reveals, “A dramatic scene, featuring Ranbir and Rashmika, was canned at a set erected near Mysore Colony in Chembur. The movie will be shot in different pockets of the city, primarily in western suburbs, up to May 5.” Come May, the actor will have to juggle the gangster drama, and the final schedule of Luv Ranjan’s yet-untitled film that sees him opposite Shraddha Kapoor.
 
Animal, which is Vanga’s second Hindi film after the successful Kabir Singh (2019), reportedly revolves around a gangster family, with Mandanna playing Ranbir’s wife and Anil Kapoor his father. Barely a week after his April 14 wedding to girlfriend Alia Bhatt, Ranbir had headed to Manali to commence work on the project.
