Varun Dhawan plays a tailor in Sui Dhaga, while Rajkummar Rao also essays one in the horror comedy, Stree. The method actor always goes out of his way to get into the nuance of his character. Rajkummar underwent a month-long training with a tailor to get his act on the sewing machine right in Chanderi. He also learnt how to stitch women's outfits, which included a saree blouse. Orders, anyone?


Rao, who has emerged as one of the most versatile actors in Bollywood in recent times, said the definition of "hero" has undergone a change today with cinema. "The speed at which cinema is changing, the definition of hero is also changing. Even a big superstar like Aamir sir plays the role of a father. There's action genre, where you have to show body and do stunts, so you may call that a hero (centric genre).


"But now character-driven stories are there. Content is getting its due respect. Our audience wants to see characters on screen and want to see actors play new roles, adapt different body language," he added.


Stree, which also stars Shraddha Kapoor, Pankaj Tripathi, Aparshakti Khurana and Abhishek Banerjee, is directed by Amar Kaushik and jointly produced by Dinesh Vijan and, Raj Nidimoru and Krishna DK.
