A couple of days back, Randeep Hooda shared a picture with his mother on a photo-sharing site captioning it 'my mom is dying to be a dadi btw'. Ask him if he has thought about it and the actor replies, “She is like any other mother. She feels that I am 39 and should settle down now. She wants to see her grandchildren. Such thoughts occur to me too, but have never been solid. I am so involved in work. Kabhi kaam itna chalta hai ki sochne ki fursat nahi hai, aur kabhi dhanda itna manda chalta hai ki ussi ki soch mein pade rehte hain.“ And what about the idea of being a single father? “Ya, why not? I love kids and love interacting with them. I might settle down someday, but it isn't on top of my mind,“ he replies.
