When asked about her interaction with the veteran actor on set, Saloni revealed, “He was like a buddy to all of us. He was a friend on set. His energy was always up. He was glowing and exuding that vibrance from him. We used to fear at times to say ‘Hi’ to him on sets considering he is busy. So he used to come to us and say, ‘You didn’t say Hi today.’”

Saloni went on to emphasize the warm and welcoming atmosphere that Anil Kapoor fostered on the set of Animal. She shared, “He made us feel at home and everyone was like a family on set from the writers to the director to the DP to everybody. It was a lovely experience.”

The actress highlighted Anil Kapoor's friendly and approachable demeanour, dispelling any apprehensions the cast might have had about interacting with a seasoned actor. His proactive engagement, checking in on the team and encouraging a sense of camaraderie, contributed to creating a positive and familial environment during the film's production.
