Rajkummar Rao, celebrated for his versatility on screen, has won the hearts of millions with his exceptional talent in the entertainment industry. Since his debut in the 2010 film “Love Sex Aur Dhokha,” he has left an indelible mark with memorable performances in movies like “Kai Po Che,” “Shahid,” “Queen,” and “Citylights,” among others. In his personal life, he is happily married to actress Patralekhaa Paul.
Recent photos of Rajkummar Rao sparked speculation about possible cosmetic procedures, prompting the actor to clarify the situation.
In a recent interaction with Bollywood Hungama, Rajkummar dispelled the rumors, attributing the altered images to poor editing rather than any surgical enhancements. He stated:
“I have not done any plastic surgery guys. It is just a bad photo. That is just a touch-up photo. I wish I had such clean and flawless skin because it looks like that. I was not wearing any makeup. But I must say it looks weird even for me. It was just a bad moment caught on camera. I have not done any plastic surgery.”
Furthermore, Rajkummar Rao candidly disclosed that approximately eight years ago, he underwent a procedure involving chin fillers at the recommendation of his dermatologist. Reflecting on this decision, the actor expressed that it had indeed boosted his confidence and led to better opportunities in his career. He elaborated:
“Having said that, about eight years ago, I did some filler work on my chin because I wanted to look confident. My dermatologist suggested it and I did. Do I feel confident after that? Yes. Have I done better films after that. It has changed the perception.”
Concluding the discussion, Rajkummar Rao shared his perspective on actors opting for cosmetic enhancements. Recognizing the importance of appearance in the visual medium of acting, he acknowledged the role such treatments play in boosting confidence. However, he also highlighted the drawbacks of plastic surgery, citing its expense and time-consuming nature:
“Acting is a visual media. I am not against it. If somebody wants to boost their confidence and the science is available, then why not. But no to plastic surgery. It is too expensive and time-consuming.”
Rajkummar Rao’s journey to success is emblematic of determination and resilience. Despite his achievements, he remains grounded, retaining aspects of his middle-class upbringing. From personally handling errands like grocery shopping to booking his own flight tickets, he embodies humility amidst fame.
