There was a phase where nothing was going right, and the thought crossed my mind that what is going to happen. Since I had no Plan B, I was sure from the beginning that I love acting and this is what I want to do for the rest of my life, so I had to be ready to struggle. Rajkummar Rao Read Quote
I was fortunate to work with some of the talented filmmakers of our industry. In addition, one film leads to another. As a newcomer, I explored those opportunities. Rajkummar Rao Read Quote
All the characters play an important role. For me, as an actor, for my character to come out so beautifully, I would give all the credit to my co-actors, directors and writers. Rajkummar Rao Read Quote

Playing a real-life character, as an actor, gives me real high because there is so much of research material available in front of you. Rajkummar Rao Read Quote
There is a sense of responsibility when you play a real-life character because there are people who will see your work, make comparisons, and judge you. They have all the rights to do that because they know the real person. They might have seen that person also. Rajkummar Rao Read Quote
It’s a one-day story of a guy called Newton Kumar, and the backdrop is election: how the most powerful tool we have as citizens is vote but how we don’t utilise it. We really don’t give importance to it. It talks about democracy; it’s a satire, a black comedy. Rajkummar Rao Read Quote
Newton’ is a very Indian film. I think, after a long time, people will see an Indian film in its true form. As in the story, the character, it is set in the heartland of India, but it’s purely like how there was a time when Hrishikesh Mukherjee used to make sweet Indian films. Rajkummar Rao Read Quote
