‘Animal’ song ‘Papa Meri Jaan’ explores Ranbir Kapoor and Anil Kapoor’s complex father-son bond

The makers of ‘Animal’ released a new track from the film, titled ‘Papa Meri Jaan’, on November 14. The song, penned by Raj Shekhar and sung by Sonu Nigam, explores the complex father-son bond between Ranbir Kapoor and Anil Kapoor in the film.

‘Papa Meri Jaan’ showcases the impact Anil Kapoor’s character has on Ranbir Kapoor’s character. Anil comes across as an absentee father and yet, Ranbir Kapoor idolises him from childhood. The song also features Rashmika Mandanna extending her love and support to Ranbir.

Ranbir continuously seeks his father’s validation. To attain this goal, he even ventures onto a twisted path and things take a ‘bloody’ turn. It shows Ranbir’s journey from an innocent child to a ‘dark’ adult.

FANS REACT TO THE SONG

Fans are completely mesmerized by the song and they have flooded the comments section with their love and appreciation.

One person wrote, ‘When Sonu Nigam puts his soul into a song, a legacy of the song extends beyond from generation to generation.’ Another added, ‘Awaiting the plethora of emotions coming our way with Sonu Nigam’s soul-stirring voice.’
