Besides Ranbir and Bobby leading the line, the film also features a series of A-listed senior actors like Shakti Kapoor, Prem Chopra, Suresh Oberoi and others. The film also features Qala actress, Tripti Dimri, whose little glimpse in the trailer has excited her massive fanbase.

According to a report in Siasat, the film's lead, Ranbir Kapoor took home the hefty fee of Rs. 70 crores.

Apart from Ranbir Kapoor's mammoth fee, the film's alleged antagonist, Bobby Deol, received Rs. 4-5 crores for Animal, an amount that is 14 times less. Moving forward to other cast members, Rashmika Mandanna charged Rs. 4 crores, while Anil Kapoor received a sum of Rs. 2 crores for the film.
