Do you think Randeep Hooda is the new sex symbol of Bollywood?

He started out as an NRI in Mira Nair’s Monsoon Wedding and was noticed as the beau of beauty queen Sushmita Sen. A few utterly forgettable Ram Gopal Verma films followed and for some time, we were like, Randeep Hooda, Who? But, all that is  in the past now. Hooda made a comeback with Ekta Kapoor’s Once Upon A Time In Mumbai  as ACP Agnel Wilson and with Tigmanshu Dhulia’s Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster established himself as an actor. But now,  with Cocktail and Jannat 2 he is starting a fresh new inning and is not only expecting Jism 2 to earn him a home run but is also hoping to be the next sex symbol of Bollywood.

But believe it or not this is what Pooja Bhatt promised him.  In an interview to IBN LIVE  Randeep said that after he heard the script he told Pooja that with Jism 2 he wanted to establish himself as an iconic sex symbol and Pooja said “I promise that you’ll be”. The audiences will find out whether Pooja kept her promise after watching the film but here is what he had to say On Sunny Leone and Hooda’s sexy poster: I am happy that I am at least wearing something. On the sex symbol tag:  I don’t look in the mirror and say ‘O you sexy thing.’ It’s good for business; you get more work, more money. On being stereotyped for heady aggressive roles:  I don’t give a damn about being stereotypes. People might say that all these roles are the same but I know all of them are different from each other. So, with just a day left for Jism 2’s release, here is a question.  Do you think Randeep Hooda is an iconic sex symbol? Post your replies in the comment box below.
