It always pays to have friends in the industry. Word is that Randeep Hooda recommended the name of former co-star and good friend Arunoday Singh for Rensil D'Silva's film that he is also a part of.
It may be recalled that the friendship between the two actors did not exactly have a conventional start. Randeep replaced Arunoday in Madhur Bhandarkar's Fashion. Later, both of them worked in Jism 2 and became close chums.
Our source says, `It was surprising that the two hit it off so well. Both were even spotted hanging out together. No wonder that Randeep recommended his name to Rensil.`
A friend of Randeep says, `He has grown very fond of Arunoday. When he heard Rensil was looking for an actor to play Kangna Ranaut's brother in the film, he promptly took Arunoday's name and he was finalised for the role.`
