But here’s the kicker – it’s not CGI or VFX; it’s a real 500kg weapon. Unlike typical movie magic, the ‘War Machine’ in ‘Animal’ wasn’t isn’t some sort of visual effect.

No CGI Tricks – A Real 500KG Weapon!
As mentioned in the movie, the war machine was designed in Delhi, manufactured in Bengaluru and was finally assembled in Maharashtra. The awe-inspiring ‘War Machine’ is no figment of digital imagination. It’s a behemoth of a machine, weighing in at a staggering 500kg. What’s more astounding is that it took a dedicated team four months to handcraft this colossal weapon entirely from real steel. This extraordinary war machine boasts three sets of gatling machine guns seamlessly integrated into its three-wheeled frame.
As Ranbir Kapoor wields this monstrous creation, heavy projectile magazines wrap around the prop, emphasizing its formidable firepower. A windscreen adds to the menacing appearance, leaving viewers in awe of its sheer might. While the film remains tight-lipped about the war machine’s method of propulsion, keen-eyed viewers can catch a glimpse of two cylinder heads running along the vehicle’s length. The three-wheeler rides on fat, knobby tires, giving it an industrial and robust aesthetic. An industrial front fender completes the look, hinting at the machine’s raw power.
