Swantantrya Veer Savarkar Turns 1: Randeep Hooda Returns To Horse Riding 2 Years After Serious Injury

Actor Randeep Hooda has finally returned to horseback riding after more than two years of recovery. The actor suffered a severe knee injury while working on his maiden directorial project, Swatantrya Veer Savarkar. The injury, which occurred when the film was initially shelved due to financial constraints, left him with multiple ligament tears in his knee, requiring extensive rehabilitation.

Randeep, who underwent a drastic physical transformation for Veer Savarkar, had lost excessive weight for the role, which led to a dangerous fall while on horseback. The impact was severe-he passed out and broke all the ligaments in his knee. Despite these setbacks, the determined actor refused to give up on the film. He went on to complete Veer Savarkar using his own money, filming intense sequences with knee braces on, and even running in certain scenes-further aggravating his injury.

Following months of medical treatment and dedicated rehabilitation at Kokilaben Hospital, Randeep has now regained enough strength to return to one of his greatest passions-horse riding. A seasoned equestrian, he has been deeply involved in polo and show jumping for years. From winning numerous national-level medals to owning polo clubs and teams, Randeep's love for the sport is well-known.

Now that he is back in the saddle, there is anticipation that he might soon return to competitive riding. As Randeep himself has said, "There is no life without sports, and there is no sport without competition."

Reflecting on his journey of recovery and resilience, Randeep draws a parallel between life and horse riding: "Like life, same as horse riding, one has to get back in the saddle regardless of the hurdles and falls."

His return marks not just a personal victory but also an inspiring testament to his unwavering spirit. With his passion reignited, it won't be long before we see him competing again, striving for excellence, and adding more adventures to his name.
