Making A Career Out Of Flop Films, Randeep Hooda Has Proved Talent Is Greater Than Box Office Numbers

Thousands of people come to Mumbai with the dream of becoming an actor. It takes several years for most aspiring actors to bag their debut role. That one opportunity is their only shot to seize everything they’ve ever wanted. If that turns out to be a flop, what’s next?

 
 

Actors don’t always get a second chance to prove their talent. From Kumar Gaurav to Rajeev Khandelwal, there are many of them who faded away into oblivion despite being good at their craft. And  even if some get lucky and bag another opportunity sometimes unfortunately that doesn't work out too and then their career is destroyed forever. Many star kids like Mimoh Chakraborty have failed. 
 
Even superstars like Shah Rukh Khan don’t get many chances. After Jab Harry Met Sejal and Zero, the King Khan hasn’t signed any movie in the past one year. 
 
But Randeep Hooda is different.
 
 
Hooda has made a mark in the industry with his versatility and stellar acting skills that outshone in every film that he did, despite the fact that it was a hit or a flop. 
 
Did you know, Randeep Hooda has done more flop films than hits, and yet he always steals the limelight with his impeccable performances.
 
 
His films that flopped or were below average at the box office include: D, Darna Zaroori Hai, Risk, Ru-Ba-Ru, Mere Khwabon Mein Jo Aaye, Karma Aur Holi, Love Khichdi, Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster, Heroine, Murder 3, Bombay Talkies, John Day, Rang Rasiya, Unglu, Main Aur Charles, Laal Ranf, Sarbjit and Do Lafzon Ki Kahani.
 
The films that performed well at the box office include: Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai, Jannat 2, Cocktail, Jism 2, Highway, Kick and Sultan. 
 
His role always gets critical acclaim. In the recently released Love Aaj Kal, while trolls bashed the Imtiaz Ali for sticking to the ‘old wine in new bottle’ formula, they showered praises upon Randeep Hooda’s performance. With just his cameo appearance, he won the hearts of the audiences. 
 
 
No matter what role he plays, Randeep delivers a flawlessly measured performance by slipping into any kind of role -- from a gangster, kidnapper to a romantic hero -- with so much ease that we get role in his own little cinematic world.
 
Randeep Hooda makes good films great with his power-packed performances. 
 
 
What’s more? He is a good samaritan in real life too. From serving food to the victims of Kerela floods with his own hands on his birthday to providing drinking water in drought-hit areas of Maharashtra, Randeep Hooda has always proved that he is a good human being too. 
 
Did you know, he is a professional polo player too. He participates in professional equestrian sports like polo and show jumping. 
 
 
From writing to PM Modi to becoming the ambassador for migratory species, Randeep Hooda has proved his love for animals.
 
 
He is hot, handsome and has an infectious smile. But his acting prowess is simply unbeatable! Lets tell you how it all began. 
 
 
He first charmed the audiences in Mira Nair's offbeat movie Monsoon Wedding in 2001. Playing a small role of Rahul Chaddha, he impressed everyone with his perfect diction and acting mettle in the film.
 
 
In his next film D, the third film in Ram Gopal Varma’s epic gangster trilogy after Satya and Company, he was widely praised by the critics. After this film, everyone was talking about 'this new actor who is tremendously good'.
 
 

 
 

In Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster, Randeep Hooda made his presence felt in the industry. Be it his sensuous scenes with Mahie Gill or the gritty ones featuring Jimmy Shergill, Randeep proved his versatility by acing different different shades of his character. 
 
 
Even in the films where he has done cameo roles, Randeep has made his presence felt. His foul-mouthed, aggressive role in Highway was much-appreciated. 
 
 
In Ketan Mehta’s Rang Rasiya, his portrayal of painter Raja Ravi Varma was enchanting as well as impressive.
 
 
He did commercial potboilers like Kick as well and once again stole the limelight along with Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Salman Khan.
 
 
In Laal Rang, he attempted a rather complex role of himself, a Haryanvi Jaat guy, who gets involved into the black market of trading blood, a business that’s as real as unreal it sounds. 
 
 
The movie didn’t gain commercial success, but it still remains to be one of the best films of his career and Hooda himself agrees it was indeed a landmark movie in his life. 
 
He is so passionate about acting that he gave three years of his career to a film on Battle of Saragarhi that never saw its completion. 
 
 
He said that the film changed him for the good and that he became a better person in an attempt to portray the role of Havildar Ishar Singh. 
 
 
Hooda’s beautifully judged and controlled performance in films like Once Upon a Time in Mumbaai, Main Aur Charles, Jannat 2 and Murder 3 gave him the limelight he deserved. 
 
 
Randeep Hooda’s next film is a Hollywood project titled Extraction in which he is featuring alongside Chris Hemsworth, David Harbour, Golshifteh Farahani and Derek Luke.
