Recently, actor Randeep Hooda was spotted in Kolhapur, where he’s busy filming his upcoming project, Eetha, directed by Laxman Utekar. Taking a break from shooting, he visited the Mahalaxmi Temple, also known as Ambabai Temple, to seek blessings.
As he wraps up the final stages of Eetha alongside Shraddha Kapoor, Randeep dedicated time to pray to Goddess Mahalakshmi. This ancient temple, steeped in history since the 7th century, is revered for its spiritual significance and is thought to bring prosperity, protection, and strength. This visit holds special importance for Randeep as he prepares for fatherhood, with his wife, Lin Laishram, expecting their first child in March.
A source close to the actor revealed, “This period is profoundly transformative for Randeep. He’s concluding a significant film while also getting ready to become a father—an experience that’s deeply emotional and exciting for him. Visiting the Mahalaxmi Temple in Kolhapur was a crucial and spiritual moment for him.”
Known for his intense dedication and introspective personality, Randeep’s visit to the temple reveals a personal side that values faith, humility, and meaningful new beginnings.
In recent days, Randeep has also stirred up excitement on social media with a striking mirror selfie showcasing his impressive, bulked-up physique. The actor shared a shirtless mirror selfie on his Instagram, and the response was overwhelming, with fans showering the post with fire and heart emojis. One admirer exclaimed, “You should teach others about gaining and losing weight!” while another dubbed him the “hottest,” reflecting the enthusiasm among his followers.
Given Randeep Hooda’s history of making significant physical transformations for his film roles, many speculate that this new muscular look is for Eetha, a project produced by Maddock Films and directed by Laxmikant Utekar.
A source from the project shared, “Randeep has always been incredibly committed to his roles, and he takes physical transformation seriously. If a role requires a specific look or physique, he fully dedicates himself to achieving it, and that’s precisely what he’s doing for Eetha. He’s currently focused on building strength and muscle.”
