Featuring an impressive cast that includes Anil Kapoor, Rashmika Mandanna, Bobby Deol in a menacing role, and Ranbir Kapoor, “Animal” directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga has become a cinematic phenomenon. In Bollywood, it is quite rare for an artist playing an antagonistic role to steal the show alongside the main cast. As the enigmatic Abrar Haque in Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s film “Animal,” Bobby Deol has become the talk of the town. Social media has gone crazy over a specific scene in which Bobby makes his entrance in the movie dancing to the popular Iranian song “Jamal Kudu” while holding a glass of alcohol above his head. Have you ever wondered, though, what spurred this famous moment?
How Did The Song “Jamal Kudu” Originate?
The music of “Jamal Kudu” is so catchy that it’s taken over the internet as a complement to the movie. The talented music composer Harshvardhan Rameshwar reworked this track, which originally came from the well-known Iranian song “Jamaal Jamaaloo,” for the film “Animal.” The song’s lyrics are said to have their origins in southern Iran, which gives Bobby Deol’s iconic entrance scene a distinct taste.
The Creation of the Scene: Behind the Cameras
Bobby was instructed by the choreographer to dance no sooner than the cameras rolled, however, the actor stated that he met with an unforeseen problem. Bobby stated ”When we started shooting, the choreographer said, ‘You do it.’ I was like, ‘What will I do?’ I started dancing and he told me, ‘No, No. Don’t do it like Bobby Deol.’ Then Saurabh, who plays my brother, I told him, ‘Can you do and show? How would you do it?’ After turning to Saurabh, who portrays his on-screen brother, for inspiration, Bobby sought yet another concept. That’s when Bobby’s early recollections came to the surface throughout this creative process.
Bobby’s Flashback to Childhood:
“Then I suddenly remembered the time when I was small and we used to go to Punjab. I remember how we used to get drunk and keep glasses on our heads. I never understood why we did it. It suddenly came to my mind and I did that. Sandeep liked it.” said Bobby.
Bobby Deol’s dance routine has become a sensation unto itself as “Animal” keeps making waves in the film industry and receiving a ton of love and criticism. A fantastic storm of fun has been generated by the combination of Iranian rhythms, Bobby’s endearing movements, and the surprising glass-on-head scene. Its contagious enthusiasm is evident from the social media craze that has surrounded it. With fans from all over the world trying to mimic Bobby Deol’s famous antics, the #JamalKuduChallenge became viral on the internet. So, have you tried dancing with a glass on your head yet?
