Rajkummar Rao, who is currently reeling under the success of
Stree 2
, has cemented his name in the industry through performances like Newton, Trapped and many more. The actor, who turns a year older today, had said in an interview years back that though he is proud of the work he does, he hardly re-watches any of his films.
He told IANS a few years back, “I feel proud that I am part of such films that people will know me of, because of this filmography.
I don’t really re-watch my performances, but if I see bits here and there, I always feel that I could have done it better.”
“Also, you grow in life, you become more mature and understand the changes, so yeah that feeling always comes.”
While on the actor, his movie ‘Stree 2’ is unstoppable and continues to achieve new heights as the movie has now become the
highest-grossing Hindi film
in the country in its second week at the box office.
The film is indeed ruling the box office. The film is running in its 2nd week now, and it seems to have seen no effect of the new releases.
As per trade analyst Taran Adarsh, the film has scored a total Rs 453.60 crore net during the second week.

‘Stree 2’ is directed by Amar Kaushik. Actor Varun Dhawan has a special cameo in the film.
Not only Varun, Akshay Kumar also made a special appearance. He was hailed for his performance.
