Imtiaz Ali and Randeep Hooda are collaborating again. After the critically acclaimed Highway (2014) in which Randeep played a kidnapper who has a change of heart, the actor will be collaborating with Imtiaz for the sequel of the cult film, Love Aaj Kal.
Love Aaj Kal was a romantic comedy-drama starring Saif Ali Khan and Deepika Padukone in the lead directed by Imtiaz Ali himself in 2009. In the sequel which is currently going by a make-shift name, Love Aaj Kal 2, Sara Ali Khan and Kartik Aaryan are playing the lead roles. Randeep is a part of the sequel and just wrapped the shooting for his part a couple of days ago.
Thanking his director for the journey, Randeep took to Instagram to share a heartfelt message that said, “And it’s a wrap for me for @imtiazaliofficial next .. a wonderful reunion after 5 years of the iconic #highway .. an honest experience as always.. the joy of work, pushing boundaries.. a rediscovery as an artist, as a person .. gratitude and wishing the whole team a great future ahead (sic).”
The actor also thanked his team for helping him get his look right. Imtiaz, too, shared a photo with Randeep with a caption that read, “a man has not lost his dream; refreshing to re-unite (sic).”
Imtiaz, on the other hand. returned the gesture by sharing an image of the Sultan actor. He captioned the photo, “a man has not lost his dream; refreshing to reunite” on social media.
