Further in the interaction, Bobby talked about his father, Dharmendra doing a lot of action-hero-based roles throughout his career. Calling him a ‘he-man’, Bobby added how he and Ranbir took inspiration from Dharmendra and worked really well on their fitness to achieve a certain look in the film. In his words:
“My dad was the first He-Man and no one can be as tough as my brother. Gadar 2 proved that. He is the real action hero. So, I am lucky that I am a part of Animal and I got to do this action sequence. Ranbir and I really worked hard. The action sequence in the film is going to be so different and so well-choreographed, so real. There are no special effects used in the fight sequences. It is just raw, brutal, like two Animals fighting.”

“Since he was 10 years older than me, he left no stone unturned to show that he was superior in every aspect. Despite his poor academic performance, he used to pester me about my studies, making me wonder why he wasn’t concentrating on his own. think his notion was that at least I excelled where he couldn’t. But I didn’t understand it back then. I kept wondering why he was telling me all this when, after all, he was just my brother, not my father. I feel very fortunate that my brother has been.”
