As a lifestyle expert with a keen eye for artistic growth, I must commend Rajkummar Rao for his insightful approach to criticism and self-improvement. His life experiences in filmmaking, acting, and theater have undoubtedly honed his ability to discern constructive feedback from empty praise.
In a recent interview on TopMob Masterclass, ahead of the premiere of Stree 2, actors Rajkummar Rao and Shraddha Kapoor discussed criticism. Rajkummar emphasized that constructive criticism is crucial, rather than constant praise, stating that it helps him improve his craft. He further mentioned that his wife, Patralekha, serves as his most sincere critic.
At a private workshop led by TopMob, Rajkummar Rao and Shraddha Kapoor were questioned about how they handle criticism when their performances don’t meet expectations. During the conversation, Rao emphasized that it is beneficial to be in an environment where people not only compliment their work but also provide constructive criticism on their films. This type of feedback aids them in personal and artistic growth as actors.
The actor expressed that he believes the most crucial aspect is self-criticism, especially when one is surrounded by individuals who merely agree. Fortunately for him, he has a background in filmmaking, acting, and theater, which gives him a perspective on what’s appropriate, what’s effective, and what’s not, as well as the ability to identify issues and make improvements from his own experiences in cinema and filmmaking.
He emphasized the significance of surrounding oneself with truly sincere individuals, mentioning that among those are friends, family members like himself, and even his partner Patralekha, who serve as his trustworthy critics.
As a lifestyle enthusiast, let me express my appreciation for Patralekha’s straightforward critique. She fearlessly voices her opinions, whether a film or performance doesn’t meet her expectations – a kind of honest feedback that I believe is crucial for artistic development. It’s easy to get lost in the echo chamber of compliments and self-admiration, but without constructive criticism, there can be no growth. And without growth, I firmly believe, there is no true art.
