Shedding more light on his physical transformation for Badhaai Do, the actor informs, “Badhaai Do is indeed a special film for me. I have been working on a very strict regime and being a vegetarian, I am following a natural & organic diet consisting of fruits, oats, quinoa and sattu and lots of veggies on a regular basis. Even during the lockdown, when the access to gym was restricted, I have been doing a daily home workout and this entire process has been life changing.”

Riding high on the success and appreciation of two back-to-back successful films – Ludo and Chhalaang, Rajkummar will be seen sharing the screen space opposite Priyanka Chopra in the international film, The White Tiger too.

Two years after their National Award-winning film, Badhaai Ho, Junglee Pictures is set to take the success of the movie to the next level with Badhaai Do. Directed by Harshavardhan Kulkarni and written by Akshat Ghildial and Suman Adhikary, it features Rajkummar Rao and Bhumi Pednekar who will be seen together on screen for the first time.
