Actor Ranbir Kapoor shared an update about `Animal Park` on his 43rd birthday. The actor revealed that the shoot for Animal Park will begin in 2027. In 2024, producer Bhushan Kumar confirmed that the project will only begin shooting after `Spirit` with Prabhas is complete.

Ranbir stated that director Sandeep Reddy Vanga has been interacting with him about the idea and characters, and that it`s `crazy`. The 43-year-old went live on the official Instagram handle of his brand `Arks` on his birthday. During the interaction with fans, he also shared an update about `Animal Park`, and said, "`Animal Park` should start in 2027. Sandeep has been interacting with me on the idea, the music and the characters and it`s just crazy, and I can`t wait to be on set."

`Animal Park` is a sequel to `Animal` (2023), which also featured Rashmika Mandanna, Anil Kapoor, Triptii Dimri, Bobby Deol, Shakti Kapoor, Saurabh Sachdeva and others in key roles. Before `Animal Park` goes on the floor, Ranbir will be seen in Nitesh Tiwari`s `Ramayana Part 1`, and Sanjay Leela Bhansali`s `Love And War` - both scheduled to release in 2026.

`Love And War` is a romance drama film that features key roles for actors Alia Bhatt and Vicky Kaushal. Bhansali recently shot an intense fight sequence between Ranbir and Vicky in Sicily, Italy.

Ranbir will also be seen portraying the character of Lord Rama in `Ramayana Part 1`. The film is based on sage Valmiki`s ancient text `Ramayan` and sage Tulsidas`s epic `Ramcharitmanas`. The movie also features Sai Pallavi as Goddess Sita, Sunny Deol as Lord Hanuman, Yash as Raavana and Ravie Dubey as Laxman.

Kajal Aggarwal, Vivek Oberoi, Rakul Preet Singh, Arun Govil, Lara Dutta, Indira Krishnan, Kunal Kapoor, Sheeba Chadha and others also play pivotal roles in the film. The film is produced by Namit Malhotra.
