Stree 2's Rajkummar Rao opens up on evolution of Bollywood; says THIS about actors and writers

As a lifestyle expert, I find it truly inspiring to delve into the journey of Rajkummar Rao, a beacon of resilience and dedication in Bollywood. His tale of perseverance is a testament to the power of never giving up on one’s dreams, even when faced with seemingly insurmountable obstacles.


Currently, Rajkummar Rao is reveling in the success of his latest film release Stree 2, which features Shraddha Kapoor, Pankaj Tripathi, Aparshakti Khurana, and Abhishek Banerjee. His performance in this movie has garnered much praise, and he is now discussing the dynamic nature of Bollywood. Rao has expressed his views on how both writers and actors have evolved over time, as well as how scripts and stories have become more progressive.

During an interview with News18 Showsha, the actor from The Stree 2 stated, “I believe this is a positive shift. Now, there’s more emphasis on crafting quality scripts and telling compelling stories. Actors are also pushing themselves by exploring various genres and characters. I think we’re in an excellent era for entertainment.”

It was pointed out that as audiences are getting more accustomed to international movies, they’re watching more of them and starting to desire similar innovative storytelling in Indian films. The observation was made that the industry tends to stick with familiar film types rather than experimenting with new concepts. However, when a film like Stree comes along, offering something original and fresh, it is warmly received by viewers.

During a conversation with Raj Shamani, Rao shared that after moving to Mumbai, he spent over a year searching for acting roles without success. Eventually, he noticed an audition notice for LSD and immediately visited Dibakar’s office. There, he was instructed to contact casting director Atul Mongia. Somehow, Rajkummar acquired Atul’s phone number and contacted him, receiving a request to submit his photographs. He repeatedly sent his photos until Atul finally called him for an audition.

On the professional side of things, Rao was recently featured in Stree 2. This film continues the chilling story of Chanderi, with Rao and Kapoor reprising their popular roles. In this installment, the town is up against a new threat called Sarkata, and they call on Stree for help. Additionally, the movie features exciting guest appearances, including Varun Dhawan portraying Bhediya.

In terms of his upcoming collaborations, he’s slated to star alongside Triptii Dimri in the music video “Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala.” This film is a joint production by T-Series, Balaji Telefilms, Wakaoo Films, and Thinkink Picturez. This project will be their first professional endeavor together for the lead pair. The music and background score for the movie are being created by the duo Sachin-Jigar.
