Pakistani model Shafina Shah appeared in 'Animal' movie?

The Bollyood blockbuster “Animal,” starring Ranbir Kapoor and Bobby Deol, garnered attention beyond India, facing criticism for its portrayal of violence against women and masculine rage.

While the film stirred controversy due to its depiction of violence, it also made headlines for other reasons. Despite the criticism, the enchanting Iranian track 'Jamal Jamaloo’ won hearts, though its beautiful poetry contrasts with the film's violent nature.

The song's viral beat and Bobby Deol’s catchy hook step took social media by storm.

An additional intriguing element of the movie was the presence of UK-based Pakistani model Shafina Shah, portraying the role of Bobby Deol's character, Abrar's second wife.

Despite her limited screen time and few scenes, Shafina made a significant impact and earned praise for her performance.

Hailing from the UK with a Pakistani mother and an Indian father, Shafina follows in the footsteps of her parents, who were actors as well.

Alongside her Miss World Pakistan 2023 title, she is set to represent Pakistan in the pageant. Shafina recently shared her experience from the sets of 'Animal' during a morning show appearance.

Shafina revealed that, while visiting Pakistan, a UK-based agent contacted her about the film auditions, leading to her selection for the role.

The scenes were filmed in the UK. Shafina shared a humorous incident during the shoot. In a scene where Bobby Deol's character, Abrar, slaps his wife, there was a mishap during practice, resulting in Bobby Deol accidentally hitting Shafina's nose.

She mentioned that the actor promptly apologised and ensured she was okay.

Shafina Shah, the winner of Miss World Pakistan 2023, aspires to represent Pakistan against 75 countries in a beauty pageant in Cambodia.

"Animal" has managed to achieve significant box office success. The film's high production value, captivating performances, and catchy music have drawn audiences to theaters, 

The film "Animal," directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga, features a prominent cast including Ranbir Kapoor, Anil Kapoor, Bobby Deol, Rashmika Mandanna, and Tripti Dimri. The story revolves around Ranvijay "Vijay" Singh's reaction to learning of an assassination plot against his father.
