Randeep Hooda is one of the finest actors in showbiz who left no stone unturned to get into the character of the skin. From his powerful performances in Sarabjit to his portrayal of Charles Sobhraj, he never failed to amuse fans with his striking transformation. Now, for his upcoming film Jaat, Randeep has undergone yet another intense makeover.
Randeep has completely immersed himself to play the antagonist in the movie. From gaining weight to voice modulation, he has gone the extra mile to immerse himself to bring his most menacing and evil role to life. In Jaat, Randeep plays Ranatunga, a ruthless gangster who will face off against Bollywood’s macho icon, Sunny Deol.
A source close to the production revealed, "Randeep is known for his methodical approach to every role he takes on, and Jaat is no different. From day one, he was committed to making Ranatunga a truly fearsome villain.”
“He grew out his hair to give the character a raw look, worked on his physique to add a more intimidating presence. His attention to detail is unmatched, and he ensures that no aspect of his performance feels inauthentic. Whether it was Sarbjit, Swatantra Veer Savarkar, or now Jaat, Randeep never shies away from going the extra mile. His fans admire him for his ability to transform into the characters he plays completely, and with Ranatunga, they are going to see a version of Randeep that is darker, more menacing, and truly terrifying on screen," concluded the source.
Randeep Hooda’s portrayal in Jaat promises to set a new benchmark for on-screen villains, showcasing a gripping and intense presence like never seen before.
Directed by Gopichand Malineni, Jaat also stars Saiyami Kher, Regina Cassandra and Vineet Kumar Singh in key roles. Produced by Naveen Yerneni and Y Ravi Shankar of Mythri Movie Makers, alongside TG Vishwa Prasad of People Media Factory, the movie is scheduled to release on April 10.
On the professional front, Randeep Hooda is also currently busy filming his Hollywood project, the action-thriller Matchbox in Budapest. The film is directed by Sam Hargrave and co-stars John Cena.
