'Kareena is the hottest' - Randeep Hooda

A year ago, we had a rather wild encounter with this gentleman where he was extremely outspoken and bold. This time, though he didn't let his guard down, and held himself back from mouthing everything on his mind, we'd like to pat our back for squirting a couple of spicy answers from him for our masaledaar questions.

Surprisingly, he was annoyed with our string of queries on sex siren Sunny Leone, we wonder why.

In a candid chat, Randeep Hooda admits he doesn't mind girlfriend, Neetu Chandra, sporting a bikini on screen, places his bet on Kareena Kapoor as Bollywood's hottest heroine and confesses he's watched Sunny's po*n tapes.

"Men Think Of Sex, But They Think Of Work Too!"

Do you plan to be honest with your answers or would you cheat us with your replies?

I was pretty honest even the last time we did an interview. So, I will try to be honest with all the bulls**t I blurt.

Let's start with the naughtiest pranks you've played as a kid.

I poisoned my neighbour's dog but I didn't know it would die. I did that because it didn't allow me to get my kite back which flew on to my neighbour's terrace.

What a revenge story! What about girlfriends? You've had plenty. Didn't your parents ever object?

Never! They had nothing to say. I don't keep a count of the women I've dated in my life. I just feel I've been fortunate enough to know a lot of beautiful ladies but unfortunately none of them was worth settling down with.

Your idea of a perfect date would be?

There is nothing like a perfect date. It's a fleeting fantasy which doesn't happen. I'm a lover. I don't go around dating numerous women.

What are the ingredients of a successful relationship?

Trust, space and good stuff between the sheets! (winks)

Do you dominate in a relationship or do you prefer the lady to take charge?

I have a domineering nature but I'm happy taking the backseat and letting my companion take charge. I don't mind being guided through my life and relationship.

What is your kinkiest bedroom fantasy?

That's for the bedroom and the bed-sheets to know! I don't want to give away these secrets to magazines. I'd rather let the women discover!

What if you get along well with a woman who is not ready to be bedded? What would you do to make her comfortable?

I won't sleep with her and the relationship would go kaput because sex is essential.

What do you think women look for in a man?

You want me to sound stupid by speaking on a woman's behalf?

What's the strangest gift you've ever received from or gifted a woman?

You might find this strange, but another woman!

What turns you on in a woman?

Her smile, the way she looks at you, and her womanliness.

Have you ever watched po*n? When was the last time you watched a po*n video or a clip?

I've watched po*n movies! I watched Sunny Leone's po*n videos after I shot Jism 2. My friends made me watch them. And I was like, "Oh my God! F**k!"

You kissed Sunny Leone on screen, something men envy you for. How was it?

She's a po*n star for the world but I perceive her as a novice actor with who you have to be really patient with. I didn't see any difference between her and any of my other female co-stars who I've performed steamy scenes with. Sunny was a little more inhibited than other girls.

Considering she is a po*n star, did you ever feel intimidated by her?

Naah! I wish that was the case though!

What did your parents and girlfriend Neetu have to say about your steamy scenes with her?

They didn't react which means they were comfortable. And, I wasn't doing a po*n film!

Did you have to be more prepared for lovemaking scenes because for Sunny, it was her profession a while ago? Did she have suggestions for you?

If this interview is about Sunny Leone then you should shut up and go home. Lovemaking in films is different from a po*n movie. Sunny didn't know how to absorb herself into a scene from an emotional point of view. It was tough for me and the director to compensate for that. It was an impediment and a hurdle that she is a po*n star.

Got your point, but are you in touch with her?

Nope, neither physically nor emotionally nor via the satellite!

Have you ever read sex novels?

Yes, a lot of them during my teenage. In school days, I picked up novels that described sex from the library.

Do you think men have sex on their mind 24X7?

Not 24X7…. men think of work too! But men think a lot about sex and there is nothing wrong with that. I'm not different from the others but I can't tell you how often I think about sex.

Do you believe in love at first sight?

Nope. Love at first sight happens only in movies. In most cases it is attraction and a lustful reaction.

What if you are marooned on an island with a beautiful woman?

I'd be delighted! If she can have an intelligent conversation, nothing like it.

Have you ever abused your body?

Always, but I am thinking of quitting now.

Are you possessive in a relationship?

I am not possessive because possessing someone in the name of love is an affected affection and not real affection. If a person is happy doing what he or she likes, you should let them rather than making him or her do things according to you.

But you must be possessive of something in life?

My horses, because I don't want a f**king a**hole sitting on them and spoiling months of hard work I put for grooming them to a point where they communicate with me. A langur (Monkey) sits on them and spoils my hard work in two days which I can't stand.

Who according to you is the hottest heroine in Bollywood?

Kareena Kapoor. We had an opportunity to work together before Heroine but it didn't work out. This time we didn't let it go. I firmly believe she is hot. But I can't rate her on any scale. She was my co-star and today, she's someone's wife.

Do you believe that sex with protection is the best way to avoid commitments and still enjoy physical relationships?

Sex with protection is the best way not to contract sexually transmitted diseases, period!

If you met a woman at a party and liked her, how would you connect with her?

Sensitively, gently, cautiously and sexually! Just the way I would connect with any other woman.

Do you think Indian men have double standards with respect to women?

If you are talking about men in general, I wouldn't like to comment. But it seems true although that's not the case with me.

Will you allow your girlfriend Neetu Chandra to sport a bikini in films if required?

Sure. Why not? If you've got it, flaunt it.

The Indian law has finally approved of same sex marriages. Do you think they are 'unnatural'?

I'm happy that same sex marriages have got the approval of the law of India. Sex plays an important part in our lives. Whatever tickles your fancy is acceptable. Whatever puts you off is no fancy to me.

Today, live-in relationships are in, and marriage seems to be an old school concept. Your take?

The world is moving at a fast pace. The concept of marriage seems to have become a faint idea. I believe live-in relationships are the best way to know someone while you stay with the person. You can check how compatible you are with your companion because it's a decisive factor in the long run for a relationship to sustain. If two people come to a point in a live-in relationship where they can't stand each other, obviously, marriage shouldn't even be considered.

Have you ever been ditched in love?

Oh, yes! But I don't mull over it.

Do you feel women give more to a relationship than men?

Yeah, they do because it's their nature. They do a lot of nice things which make a relationship look beautiful.

Do you regret anything you've ever done?

In gross generalisation, no! I've realised whatever happens, happens for a reason.

Who do you rely on when you are upset?

Strange, but myself!
