Randeep Hooda Says Language, Culture Are “Strengths, Not Limits”

MUMBAI- Actor Randeep Hooda says staying connected to one’s roots has always guided his personal and professional journey. He feels that language and culture are not barriers but powerful strengths that shape perspective and identity.

“I’ve always believed in embracing your roots as we move forward with time. For me, language and culture are not limitations, they are strengths that shape who we are and how we see the world,” Randeep said.

The actor is associating himself with a platform that is focused on Haryanvi, Rajasthani and Bhojpuri storytelling.

 “The stories that stay with us the longest are the ones that sound familiar, feel lived-in, and come from a place of truth. Associating with storytelling that honors regional languages and cultural identity feels deeply personal to me, because it reflects the values I’ve always carried with me,” he said.

Randeep and his wife Lin Laishram are also readying for the birth of their first child.

On the acting front, Randeep will be next in ‘Operation Khukri’ which will bring to screen the harrowing real-life events from 2000, when 233 Indian soldiers were held hostage by rebel forces in Sierra Leone, West Africa, and the subsequent high-risk rescue mission that followed. (IANS)
