Actor Rajkummar Rao will soon be seen in Maddock Films' comedy drama Hum Do Hamare Do opposite Kriti Sanon. The actor is juggling with multiple projects along with the promotion of this film that releases on October 29. In an exclusive interview with mid-day.com, Rajkummar opened up on the OTT boom, upcoming projects and Diwali memories from previous years.

While the actor says he is excited about theatres reopening, he is happy with his film releasing on OTT as well. "OTT has a vast reach we can't deny the power of the medium. Theatres were shut and now opening up. OTT was the only way we could reach the audience and show them our films. It's a great way because we can watch as per our convenience again and again. I have no issue with films releasing on OTT of course theatres has its own charm but these two industries can co-exist. I was missing going to theatres so as they open up now I'm going to go watch a film," he says.

Hum Do Hamare Do is a comedy drama that is a story of Rajkummar's character adopting parents, played by Ratna Pathak Shah and Paresh Rawal. It also features Kriti Sanon as his leading lady.

After Hum Do Hamare Do, Rajkummar Rao has a packed schedule with Badhaai Do also starring Bhumi Pednekar, HIT with Sanya Malhotra and Monica O My Darling for Netflix.
