About Rajkummar Rao
According to a report by Hindustan Times, sources close to Rajkummar Rao said that he had gained weight for his upcoming project called Nikam, which is a biopic of a character much older than him in age. The actor was reportedly happy with the results, and the shoot had wrapped up. The reason for his new look seemed to be his transformation for an upcoming project, which is the biopic of ex-cricketer Sourav Ganguly.
The source quoted that, “He didn’t want to use prosthetics as he felt it was better if it could be achieved through working hard on himself. He has done it in the past too, be it Bose, where he gained 13 kgs and went half bald, or Trapped, where he lost 7 kgs in 18 days.” Prior to this explanation, the internet swirled up with various comments on the actor’s physical appearance.
