'Stree 2' actor Rajkummar Rao on playing a Kabir Singh-like role in a movie
Rajkummar Rao recently shared that he could never do something like that. During an interview on HT City, when asked what is one thing he would never do in a film, Rajkummar revealed, “Actually, it would be very hard for me to slap a girl in a scene. I wouldn't be able to do it.” When prompted to share if he would have done Kabir Singh, the actor replied, “Yeah, maybe I would have had a lot of discussions with my director about this scene. Unless it’s like something which you cannot CANNOT live without, you know your character just cannot live without, it’s like breathing that has to be there… I would get into a big debate with my director.”
