However, the biopic on Vinayak Damodar Savarkar demands it and I love to push my limit and do everything possible to do justice to the character I am playing. It's not that I have to undergo transformation out of duty or something. It's just that I like to go through the emotions of different characters. This kind of training makes me feel closer to the character," he shared.

However, he admitted that such kind of extreme transformations can take a toll on one's health. "It does take a toll on health...so I try to take breaks and pause for a while. Taking breaks really helps to undergo tough transformations," Randeep added. Randeep has already started shooting for Swatantra Veer Savarkar, a biopic on V D Savarkar. It also marks the directorial debut of Randeep, who plays the titular role in the film.
