It’s about time for Randeep Hooda to direct his first film, Swatantrya Veer Savarkar. On March 22, the movie will be released in theaters.
In a new Instagram post on Monday, Randeep Hooda showcased his drastic body transformation, drawing comparisons to Christian Bale from fans. The actor looked eerily thin in the mirror selfie, sporting oversized shorts, and captioned it simply, “KAALA PAANI.” This could imply that the actor changed to play the scenes in the movie that revolved around the cellular jail (Kaala Paani). Randeep Hooda is sharing his experience of training to play the freedom fighter Vinayak Damodar Savarkar in the movie Swatantrya Veer Savarkar.
Upon seeing the post, one fan remarked, “Our own Christian Bale!” referring to the Hollywood actor’s physical transformation for the role in The Machinist. Another fan said, “Just look at the dedication… hats off!” Another fan said, “You did this for Sarabjit also hatts off to you for this huge respect.” This comment was in reference to Randeep’s role in Sarbjit, where he had to undergo significant weight loss in order to play the character who faces imprisonment in the 2016 movie.
