With Randeep Hooda’s disgraceful “joke” on the former chief minister of Uttar Pradesh Mayawati, bringing his equity down to an all-time low, it is unlikely that the major stars of Bollywood would want to work with him.
Randeep had lately cultivated a productive working relationship with Salman Khan and had bagged the main villain’s role in Salman’s Radhe: India Most Wanted Bhai.However with the new unsavoury development , Randeep’s image stands tainted.
A close friend of Salman informs me, “I don’t think he(Salman) will work with him(Randeep) with him after this. Salman has an image to uphold as an actor who respects women.Salman’s team won’t risk his image by having him associated with a tarnished misogynist.”
It is unlikely that Randeep’s newly acquired phase as an antagonist will be supported by any major A-list actors. This leaves Randeep with no choice but to work in the ‘B’ bracket where need dictates the morals. One thing is for sure Randeep’s fall from grace after the graceless dig at Ms Mayawati has been swift.
The fear among Randeep’s friends is that Mayawati’s followers may jump into the fray demanding Randeep’s pound of flesh.And if Mayawati’s legal team decides to take the legal route against Randeep he may be in more serious trouble than it seems.
