Raima and Randeep: Opposites attract, and how!


All you wicked minds out there please do not let your imaginations run wild and put two and two together. Our headlines just relate to the superb chemistry shared on-screen by the lead pair, the dusky, ethnic Bengali beauty, Raima Sen and the macho Randep Hooda, in PVR Pictures Presentations' February 6 release, MERE KHWABON MEIN JO AAYE.
As we know by now, Raima Sen is unhappy in marriage and she fantasizes about her perfect dream guy, who happens to be our very own hunk, Randeep Hooda. And what attracts Raima to Randeep? Yes, just the fact they are so different. She, the perfect Indian ethnic beauty, frail and innocent and he, the very handsome, tough and macho guy. And she is so taken in by her dream man that she imagines him in as many as eighteen different avatars. Yes, Randeep plays eighteen different characters in the film.


As per Randeep, "It was very challenging and in the beginning quite unnerving to play so many different characters in one movie but I really enjoyed it. From Zorro to James Bond, I loved all the roles that I essayed. They all represent the perfect macho men who girls dream of and I was helped in my endeavour by my director, Madhureeta, who I share a special bond with and it was she who made this daunting task easy for me."

We have seen legends like Sanjeev Kumar (9 roles in NAYA DIN NAYI RAAT) and Kamal Hassan (10 roles in DASHAVATAR) taking up the daunting task and now we have ex-Miss World, Priyanka Chopra essaying 12 different characters in WHAT'S YOUR RASHI. But Randeep surpasses them all with as many as eighteen different roles, but the bottom line is that all these roles (unlike the previous ones essayed by the legends) are a figment of imagination of the lead female protagonist, played by Raima Sen, and that's what makes it so special. In fact, all the young girls, married or single, can relate to Raima's character!

Well, fantasies are definitely more real than reality here in this make belief dream world of Raima Sen in MERE KHWABON MEIN JO AAYE.
