Randeep Hooda

The hero is changing in Bollywood, and I approach a hero's role like a character by focusing on its weaknesses. I feel the weaknesses of a character make them more alive, relatable, and human.

As human beings, we are all flawed. And just like there is a good side, there is also a bad side waiting to find its way out.

I didn't allow failure to break my heart. So I wouldn't allow success to bloat my head.

People say if you're doing an art project, that's different from a book, but I honestly don't see it. I try and try, and I just don't.

I studied international relations and economics at the University of Virginia. I paid my way by working as a bartender in the summer and at three part-time jobs during the year.

It took me realizing that a broken heart has never actually killed anyone to find the courage to ask for what I want, in just about every situation. That was part of my own growing up.
