Rajkummar Rao recalls basing his personality on popular movie characters

  • IndiaGlitz, [Tuesday,July 19 2022]

Actor Rajkummar Rao, who is a huge cinephile, recently shared that back in the 90s he used to base his personality and behaviour on popular films and characters of the era. Citing the example of movies like 'DDLJ', 'Mohabbatein' and 'Shool', the actor said, I enjoyed watching them and wanted to be part of these stories... I was that guy for two weeks, whatever film I would watch, like with 'DDLJ', I was Raj for two weeks.

When I saw 'Mohabbatein' I got those sweaters and glasses, and I became Raj Aryan. I saw 'Shool' and I became like Samar Pratap Singh. I was a very filmy kid, he continued. Talking about future projects, Rajkummar has films like 'Bheed', 'Monica, O My Darling' and 'Mr and Mrs Mahi' and a web series titled 'Guns & Gulaabs' currently in production.

Talking about these projects, the actor told PTI, These are exciting times. I am enjoying being part of these beautiful stories and working with some fabulous makers. I have no complaints and that's how I want to continue with this journey: just do films where my heart is and not to do for any other reason ever.
