I was born and brought up in Gurgaon to a middle class family. My father, now retired, worked with the revenue department, and my mother is a housewife. I have two siblings who are both married and have kids. But I was always interested in doing something apart from studies. Rajkummar Rao Read Quote
I think God made this very path for me, and he guided me all throughout. And my family has always been very supportive. It’s not like one day I sat across the dinner table and told them I want to be an actor. It didn’t happen like that. Rajkummar Rao Read Quote
In Delhi, I became a serious stage actor. Then, luckily, the FTII acting course began, and I studied there, spent some time working on my craft. In 2008, I moved to Mumbai, and then in one and a half years of so-called struggle, I got my first film, ‘Love Sex aur Dhokha’ (LSD). Rajkummar Rao Read Quote
When you are successful, the perception of the people around you changes. If I do a variety of work, people notice me differently, and that is what is happening. I am fortunate to get these opportunities. Rajkummar Rao Read Quote
