Before this, Kareena Kapoor, who recently featured in Crew, heaped praise on her cousin Ranbir Kapoor for his acting skills and "charming" attitude on the podcast show Bebo On TRS recently. Kareena Kapoor was asked on the show how Ranbir managed to play such a dark character in Animal. Reflecting on an actor's method of acting, Kareena said, "Empathy is such an important aspect of acting. In your performance, to be empathetic towards another person and to feel that what the other characters are feeling and to bring out that emotion is also so important. Empathy is important in performances."
