Bollywood star and filmmaker Randeep Hooda has revealed how Hollywood icons like Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone, Tom Cruise, and Clint Eastwood first drew him to acting.

Recalling how his tryst with cinema began, Randeep told IANS: “I think like anybody in my room in a small town called Rohtak at that time, it's not small anymore. But, I had posters of Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone, Tom Cruise, Clint Eastwood and all these people. And it took me, and that's what I imagined, you know.”

“And then slowly, I started acting on stage and started realizing that there is more to acting than just those posters or those movies.”
