Whenever I work, I always remember the feeling of my first day when I faced the camera for the first time. I want to keep going even if I am put down by anybody or circumstance in life. It is difficult. It is mentally taxing,” Saloni Batra added. When asked if she is a part of Animal 2, Saloni Batra confirms her casting in the Ranbir Kapoor-starrer.
