Randeep Hooda is currently busy tracking the box-office success of his directorial debut, ‘Swatantra Veer Savarkar.’ The actor, who was lauded for his performance in ‘Highway’ alongside Alia Bhatt, recently spoke about developing a spiritual bond with his Highway co-star and addressed Kangana Ranaut`s targeting of Alia Bhatt during `Gully Boy` as `unbecoming.`

In a conversation with Siddharth Kannan, Randeep Hooda lauded Alia and said, “While making Highway, I developed a spiritual bond with Alia. I don’t know if it’s the same for her. That’s up to her. I can only speak for myself. I have seen that she has always tried to do new things. I stood up for her genuinely because she was unfairly targeted.”
