/> Randeep Hooda likes to space out his projects. "I do one film at a time. Fortunately for me my last release Risk has turned out really well.Between D and Risk I just had a cameo in Darna Zaroori Hai. I like to choose carefully.

My parents in Haryana have been very worried, wondering what their son is up to. But I've told them not to worry, I'll have more work as soon as finish what I'm doing. Now that Risk is over I've moved on I've completed a new film."

Randeep has moved away from the gangsterism and lawry of D and Risk to play his first ultra-romantic role in a film entitled Ru-ba-ru.

"I love the title! Believe it or not I'm an ultra-romantic at heart. It's directed by ad- maker Arjun Bali. Very interesting chap. When he came to me with the concept I was bowled over. I'm really excited about it. I took off my moustache and get soft and romantic about life. "

But why so choosy? "I meet directors and take a decision instinctively. My criteria of selection is, how much will a film enhance my creativity? I won't do a film just to be visible to the public.

I get advised all the time to increase my output. But I feel if you believe in your work, your equity will build up. I do what I believe in Ru-ba-ru is what I feel like doing today. It's an out-and-out romantic film with no element of action. It's about cherishing moments.

I was looking for a romantic project where there' s delicacy and sensitivity. I feel I've got that project. Though we haven't finalized the girl we're looking for someone innocent and vulnerable."

So is this the undisclosed side of Randeep Hooda? "The romantic side of me is the real me. But right after this project I go into another mood. But for now I'm in a romantic mood."

So where's romance in Randeep's real life? "Contrary to the general perception romance is very much alive in my life. I don't know if I love myself the most. But being with myself, getting to know myself every day, is a very rewarding experience for me."

Being single Randeep is happy. "I've always been single. When was I ever married? Yes I've had a couple of intense relationships. And now I'm out of them. I used to read in papers that actors don't have time for love. Now I know it's true. I'm so busy I only have time for love on screen. I'm not in a relationship with anyone and I love my freedom."

As for the rumours about Tabu and Randeep, "I do not want to dignify such hogwash with a response. I'm having fun, laughing, going out with friends, playing my music. I've never felt more romantic. The romance is what I'm living for."
