Randeep Hooda’s brilliant act

There can’t be a better reason to watch ‘CAT’, if not for Randeep Hooda himself. Throughout his career as an actor, he has played each of his characters with a sense of responsibility and the goal of perfection. So there’s promise, there’s talent and an oomph of charisma that makes him the actor he is today.?

Fun fact: Even as a man of Haryana, Randeep wanted to ensure that he came across Punjabi to its very last, minute detail. So he refused to talk to anyone in any other language other than Punjabi during the entirety of his shoot, so he could perfect the Punjabi accent.?

Punjab in its Real Element, Glory and Tragedy

Shot over 80 locations across Punjab, the series is as authentic as it can get. From the actors speaking Punjabi to an in-depth introduction to the real culture of the people and the state, everything from greetings, food, conversations and love for people have been captured through a very realistic lens.?

The creator-director of the series, Balwinder Singh Janjua, ensured that he didn’t shoot a single scene on a set, so as to keep the portrayal of the state of Punjab as genuine as possible. Even as he showcased two separate timelines a decade apart, the crew has displayed all the nuances and differences of a Punjab in 1990 and then in 2006 - the culture, its people et al. What’s more? Punjabi local talent made their way into the series to leave no stone unturned!
