Since the trailer of Radhe, audience have been curious about Randeep Hooda’s character. We got a very brief glimpse of his role as the film’s antagonist, and he didn’t disappoint. A glance at his character shows him as someone intimidating yet smooth, possessing a deadly combination of swag and menace. All of that was visible in the way he has reprised the role of Rana, the suave antagonist of the film. There were a few short moments in the trailer where we saw Salman’s and Randeep’s characters interacting(read fighting) with one another, and give the audiences an idea of the kind of a perfectly ultimate face-off it is going to be.
Talking about his role in the film, Randeep Hooda said, “I have played several grey characters in my career. Hence, it was an exciting experience to go completely black inside and out on this one. Getting into the nature of Rana had more to do with the look and swag than other aspects. This is my third collaboration with Salman, and it was fun and exciting as always.”
This role would be emotionally different for Randeep as he had to adopt a ruthless and vindictive character. The connection with Salman Khan in Kick was in a different space. In Radhe, they both seem to cross certain boundaries, and there are scenes where they engage in combat with each other.
Alongside Salman Khan, Radhe also stars Disha Patani, Randeep Hooda and Jackie Shroff in pivotal roles. The movie is presented by Salman Khan films in association with ZEE Studios, produced By Salma Khan, Sohail Khan and Reel Life Production Pvt. limited. The movie will release in over 40 countries, including a theatrical release in major overseas markets on May 13 2021, on the occasion of Eid. The film will be available on ZEE5 with ZEE’s pay per view service ZEEPlex on the Zee5 OTT platform and all leading DTH operators.
