In an interaction with Bollywood Spy, Bobby Deol talked about his viral entry sequence in the film, Animal wherein he could be seen doing a drunk dance with a glass on his head to the tunes of the Iranian wedding folk song, Jamal Kudu.

He said:

“He (Sandeep Reddy Vanga) had made me listen to the music beforehand. He has got a great sense of music. He has got a great sense of everything about filmmaking. He found the song from somewhere and told me I will play this in your introduction. When we started shooting, the choreographer said, You do it. I was like, what will I do? I started dancing and he told me, no, no. Don’t do it like Bobby Deol. Then Saurabh, who plays my brother, I told him, Can you do and show? How would you do it?”
