During the trailer launch of the film, Ranbir Kapoor was asked to provide a description of Animal. He said, "Animal is basically the adult-rated Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham. If I had to describe this story in a line, then it's about a man who goes to any length to protect his family. That's what the core of the film is."
Film critic Saibal Chatterjee gave 1.5 stars out of 5 to Animal and he wrote in the review, "Ranbir Kapoor delivers a powerful performance that is supported with customary elan by Anil Kapoor. But because the film is propelled in the main by problematic means and instincts, the efforts of the two stars can only go abegging. You want to look away when the two are peddling their wares."
