In a recent interview with Siddharth Kannan, Bobby Deol revealed how his role in the movie, Animal got into the list of Sandeep Vanga Reddy with the help of one of his photos.

The actor also added that the lowest phase of his life turned out to be fruitful. Bobby said:
"When I was playing Celebrity Cricket League, I didn’t have a lot of work. At that time, someone must have clicked my photo. So, when I met Sandeep for the first time, he showed me that photo, which I still have on my phone. He said, ‘I want to cast you because of your expression in this photo. It’s amazing. Bikhari ke din kaam aa gaye."
Going further in the conversation, Bobby Deol added that while shooting for one of the most important scenes in Animal, everyone on the set, along with Vanga, showered him with praise and even clapped for his performance. Calling this moment unbelievable for him, Bobby shared:
"I still remember that day I was doing a shot, it was an important moment in the film and Sandeep and all the people who were shooting started clapping. I was like, ‘What’s happening?’ Then Sandeep came to me and said, ‘What an award-winning shot!’ I was like, ‘Am I really hearing this?’ It meant a lot to me.”
