After Varun Dhawan, Rajkumar Rao goes grey for his film
Mumbai, June 2 (IBNS): Rajkumar Rao in his upcoming film 'Hamari Adhuri Kahani' will be seen playing a character that is a lot of years older to him.
The actor will be seen in the salt and pepper look in his next.
National Award winner for his film Shahid, Rajkumar Rao had no inhibitions to play a man who is 15- 20 years older to him.
As an actor, he feels that there are various characters you get to play. Since the script of the film demanded him to play and older character, he had no qualms and just went for it.
Earlier, we have seen Varun Dhawan play an older man in his film Badlapur.
When contacted Rajkumar Rao shares, "To play one's own age is easier. However to play a character some years older, I needed to observe and adapt the body language of a person that age. I had to bring in subtle nuances to my character."
