One of the most talented actors of Bollywood, Randeep Hooda is known for experimenting with his roles. He has maintained a distance from the silver screen for a while now. The actor, who had been shooting for the film ‘Battle of Saragarhi’, spoke up about his role and how he had immersed himself in Sikhism. The actor said that he had already turned into a Sikh as he had been prepping for the role so intensely.
In a recent interview with Film Chapanion, Randeep Hooda spoke up about his shelved film. He said, “I already spent two-and-a-half years with a long beard and hair and turned into a Sikh. The beard was up to my bellybutton. I didn’t cut a single hair on my body for two-and-a-half years as Sikhs do. I really attempted to live that character.”
The renowned director, Rajkumar Santoshi had announced his film which was set against the backdrop of the great Battle of Saragarhi. He had also announced teaming up with Randeep Hooda who had already started prepping to portray the role of Havildar Ishar Singh in the film. In 2018, Akshay Kumar had announced his film ‘Kesari’ which is also based on the same Battle Of Saragarhi.
