In this conversation with Anupama Chopra, Rajkummar Rao throws light on his next big release “Srikanth” directed by Tushar Hiranandani. He delves into his process of preparing for the role, and how spending time with visually-impaired individuals shaped his character, both on reel and in reality. He then talks about the recent trolling he’s been subjected to, surrounding his chin surgery, and the noise social media brings along. He discusses his love for films, and tells us how much he enjoyed and loved the Diljit Dosanjh starrer Amar Singh Chamkila.
