Randeep Hooda Calls Himself A Pandemic Action Star; Says ‘Last Year It Was Extraction, This Year It’s Radhe’

After leaving movie lovers in awe of his performance and action sequences in Extraction, the very talented Randeep Hooda joined hands with Bollywood’s Bhaijaan Salman Khan for Radhe. The action entertainer marked their third collaboration after the very successful Sultan and Kick. This time, Salman portrayed the role of an undercover cop whereas Randeep played one of the deadly antagonists. He has impressed fans yet again with his acting chops and versatility and has been lauded for his action scenes on social media.

In a recent chat with ETimes, Randeep opened up about his character in Radhe and shared, “It was the darkest, broadest black stroke that I've ever played, but it was fun. It was a very simple way of working. But we never had a chat, and this has been gone step by step, scene by scene. In this also, I got to work with some Korean fight directors and some South Indian fighter, directors which has opposite styles. But again, it was a new learning experience for me. Last year it was Extraction, this year it’s Radhe, I have become a pandemic action star (laughs). So it was a good experience for me.”

When asked where he sees himself 5 years down the line, the Highway actor shared that he sees himself straddling both worlds-- Hollywood as well as Bollywood, with a few more action movies out. He explained that 20 years ago he did not know that he would become a ‘pandemic actor star’, so you never know what is going to happen. Hooda went on to add, “But yeah, I hope to push the gamut in characterization. And I hope to push the gamut in entertainment, which probably is going to be an active thing because I'm not that very fond of dancing.”

Well, we wish him only the best as we wait to be blown away by his next performance.
