Ahead of the film's release, Ranbir Kapoor has been actively promoting the action thriller across various platforms. The actor's dedication is evident as he extends the film's reach to southern audiences. During promotional events, Kapoor shed light on the film's intriguing title, 'Animal.'

 

Explaining the choice, he stated, "Once you see the film, you will understand. The reason why Sandeep Reddy Vanga called this film Animal is because an animal behaves out of instinct. They don't behave out of thought. So, the character I'm playing behaves out of instinct to protect his family. He is impulsive, and I think that's where the title Animal came, and once you see the film, you'll realize that this film suits this title."

 

Carrying an A certificate from the CBFC, 'Animal' features an ensemble cast, including Anil Kapoor, Bobby Deol, and Rashmika Mandanna in prominent roles."
