Stree 2 actor Rajkummar Rao recalls buying groceries and desi ghee
In the latest episode of Aapka Apna Zakir, Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao were asked about what they did with their first paychecks. Shraddha was quick to respond, saying, “My parents sent me to America with lots of love. But, because they wanted to keep me grounded, they kept me on a budget with very limited pocket money. However, they said if I wanted more money, I could earn it myself. My dad asked me to get a job there, so I applied for it at a coffee shop. I bagged the job. My first cheque was $40 dollars.” She then guiltily said, “I spent it on food.”
When Rajkummar Rao was asked the same question, he shared a deeply emotional story. He mentioned, “I was in high school when I used to go teach dance to a 7-year-old girl at her house. I used to get Rs 300 for training her. The first time when I received my first salary, I think it was six notes of Rs 50. I was so happy because the financial situation at my house was not good in those days.”
He recalled, "I used my first salary to buy groceries. And after buying everything, I was left with some money so I bought desi ghee. It was a big deal for us to have ghee on our rotis".
