Randeep Hooda has already worked with two women directors during his 11 projects. He started his career with Mira Nair's Monsoon Wedding and interestingly, his next release, Mere Khwabon Mein Jo Aaye (MKMJA) too has a woman director, Madhureeta Anand at the helm of affairs.

Quite curious to know the reason we spoke to Randeep and were mighty satisfied with his answer. Randeep says, "Quite in contrast to male directors, who have often been accused of exploiting female actresses, women directors bring out the best in men. When you will watch my upcoming, MKMJA, Madhureeta has presented me as an ideal man, opposite Raima Sen. In the film, Raima is going through a bad marriage, even after giving up everything for her husband who cheats on her. And then I walk into her life as the ideal man and she imagines me in 18 different characters, right from James Bond to Zorro to a music guru!"
