After his amazing performance in the film 'Badhaai Ho' actor Gajraj Rao became a household name and went on to work in several unique and exciting movies. Known for his unique comic timing and grounded acting style, Rao plays his characters with such an ease which makes them feel relatable. In a recent conversation with The Indian Express, he recalled a sweet encounter with fans where he recieved an amazing compliment.

He stated, "I was in Ahmedabad a few days ago for a shoot. I was having lunch at a restaurant and a family came up to me. They said that when I am acting, they don’t feel that an actor is acting, it feels like there is someone from the family. It made me feel very good, I felt like the audience was investing in me, my heart was full.”

So far in his career, Gajraj has mainly played side roles and when asked whether he'd like to headline moives, he said, "Yes, but it is not that all the responsibility is on my shoulders. My collaboration with my co actors is beautiful, I really love it. It is not that I’m not the only one headlining films to be honest, I’ve been a part of stories that are wholesome and these stories are stories about a family, about a group, to which the audience feels relatable to.”

Talking about his plans of working in mainstream movies, Gajraj Rao stated, "Yes, but I need it to be challenging, something that’s new and fresh. I crave to be a part of films that is ‘undekha’.”
