If you have seen any one of Randeep Hooda’s film, you have been converted. Yes, from being indifferent to the actor to being irrevocably in love with him. That’s his charisma. He has always let his work speak for him and his versatility in Bollywood is beyond compare. Shifting between characters, Hooda does with such ease that is difficult to remember that he is the same actor from Sarbjit when you see him in his next movie Do Lafzon ki kahani. However the journey wasn’t as smooth says the method actor!
Randeep weighed 95 kgs during the shoot of Do Lafzon Ki Kahani and had to undergo rigorous training in mixed martial arts to fit the role of a fighter in the movie. Randeep’s dedication to the role surpassed the expectations of all as the actor went on with the shoot schedule even when he was inflicted with a lot of pain while shooting the fight sequences for the movie. He had to eat 2-3 kilos of boiled chicken as a part of his diet for the character, and trying to stick to the strict regime.
Randeep even went to the lengths of blending the chicken with water that made it easier to eat. “Instead of pretending to fight, we would use soft gloves and do real contact fighting. Because of that, I suffered many an injuries. I shot with real fighters who got into the mood to fight once the crowd would start cheering. We tried to keep the real moves of MMA. The fights are laced with emotion, which makes it even more special,” revealed Randeep in a heart to heart conversation.
Inspite of body aches and a string of injuries Randeep continued to give it his best shot for the character to be more convincing. Looking at the commitment of Randeep, Do Lafzon Ki Kahani is sure to give the audience some breath taking fight sequences and a heartwarming story to watch. We for one cannot wait.
