•Randeep Hooda's directorial debut 'Swatantrya Veer Savarkar' marks two years since its release.
•Hooda underwent extreme physical transformation, losing 32 kg and eating once a day to portray Savarkar's Kala Pani sentence.
•He conducted extensive research, finding limited English information on Savarkar, leading him to read various books.
