To authentically embody his character, Ranbir underwent a significant physical transformation, notably visible in his chiselled chest and six-pack abs.

'Animal' is capturing diverse attention, encompassing both positive and negative reactions from the audience. However, Ranbir is getting all the praise for his portrayal of a ruthless businessman. To authentically embody his character, Ranbir underwent a significant physical transformation, notably visible in his chiselled chest and six-pack abs. Nevertheless, a recent video on social media has unveiled a behind-the-scene aspect, revealing that, while diligently working out to sculpt his physique, the actor also employed prosthetics to depict his character's age and acquire a pot-bellied appearance.

The video showcases Ranbir affixing a prosthetic pot-belly, utilizing a silicon bodysuit to achieve the desired fuller stomach appearance. As this clip went viral on social media, fans commended the actor for his dedication and hard work in shaping his character. Simultaneously, some expressed scepticism, questioning why Ranbir did not opt for a natural weight gain approach rather than resorting to prosthetics.
