Rajkummar Rao, the Bollywood actor is currently on cloud nine as his latest release Stree 2 has created a storm at the box-office, however, his childhood was not an easy one as he belonged to a humble background.
During a podcast, Rajkummar Rao opened up about his childhood days in Gurgaon, he said, “I grew up in a joint family, I have two older siblings. I had humble beginnings. I didn’t grow up with money, so that financial stress was always there. It wasn’t like we were dying of hunger, but we were just about scraping by.”
He further revealed how his mother used to manage things, he said, “For school books and tuition fees, she’d ask our relatives for help sometimes. That’s how she raised us. There was a two or three-year period where school teachers paid our fees because there were three of us and there was no money for school fees. They didn’t want us to be taken out of school, so they chipped in for us. But I had a fun childhood, I was always outdoors.”
Rajkummar Rao’s Stree 2 also stars Shraddha Kapoor in an important role and it has earned more than Rs. 400 crore worldwide.
