I don't take myself too seriously: Rao
Actor, Rajkummar Rao has been impressing all with his natural acting skills ever since he made his Bollywood debut in 2010. From playing a small role in Rann to leading the cast of critically-acclaimed films like Shahid and Newton, he has done it all.
He says, “I am a really normal guy. I don't take myself too seriously. The day I start feeling that I am changing, that will be the day I will tell myself, ‘Okay, take a break and step back.’ The reason to be an actor was never to change myself or for money or fame. I genuinely fell in love with the craft. That's how I see it.”
The actor was last seen in Judgmentall Hai Kya opposite Kangana Ranaut, his Queen co-star.
‘I feel there should be a purpose behind everything. If scissoring a scene leaves the story incomplete, then it becomes a concern. Filmmakers like Vikramaditya Motwane and Anurag Kashyap are responsible people. They will not include a scene just to create a sensation.’

“There is a lady who manages the finances of her house, corporate finance and the finance of our country. She was in the Defence Ministry earlier. The change is happening,” said the actor at a promotional event of his forthcoming film, Mission Mangal.
He was referring to Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, who has come to lead positions in the government.
