Early life
Hooda was born in a Jat family in the village of Jassia in Rohtak district of Haryana.[1] His mother, Asha Hooda, is a social worker and his father, Dr. Ranbir Hooda, is a surgeon by profession. When he was eight years old, he went to a boarding school MNSS in Rai, Sonepat, Haryana.[2] He then went to Delhi Public School, R K Puram, New Delhi. After completing his schooling, Hooda moved to Melbourne, Australia in 1995 for higher studies where he got a Bachelors degree in Marketing and a Masters degree in Business Management and Human Resource Management.[2]

Film career
He made his film debut in Monsoon Wedding (2001), where he has played an NRI (Non Resident Indian). He got the role in the film primarily because of his Australian accent.[2] However even after a prominent performance in Monsoon Wedding he had to wait for four years to get a second project. Ram Gopal Varma cast him as lead in the gritty gangster flick D (2005). D was a turning point in his career. The D which supposedly portrayed Dawood Ibrahim's real life gave Hooda a grand entry into tinsel town. In an interview, he stated, "I find D and Risk very romantic films."[3] In 2008, he played the lead role in the romantic film Ru-Ba-Ru.[4]
