No more steamy scenes, mom tells Randeep

Mumbai: After explicit love-making sequences in `Rang Rasiya` and `Sahib Bibi Aur Gangster`, Randeep Hooda has acquired quite a reputation for the steamy stuff on screen. But all efforts to carry his lover`s image forward have been thwarted thanks to his mother, who has asked him to temper his roles.

Randeep`s mother is based in Rohtak in Haryana. "My mother is my biggest fan and critic. She loves the fact that I give all of myself to my roles. But she also feels it`s time I held some things back from the camera. Maybe she`s right. I can make love to the camera. I don`t have to make love on camera," said Randeep. Apparently he has convinced his mother he`d no more be seen doing the naughty stuff with his leading ladies. In the process of keeping a promise to his concerned mother, Randeep had to request the producer of his new film "Kushar Prasad Ka Bhoot" to tone down the love-making sequences. IANS
