For this episode, I sat down with the “Badass Babuaa” Mr. Rajkummar Rao and we got into a heartwarming conversation in the thodi-thodi thandi, thodi-thodi garmi kinda mahaul aka autumn of Delhi.
We talked our hearts out about his first film with Dibakar Banerjee, Anurag Basu’s set, FTII days, losing his mother and his undying love for her, his dream girl and his first play's “Afsos”.
I didn't let him go until he gave me a lot of scoop about Ambani’s wedding, WWE, John Cena ka bhangra, Bret Hart aur Hulk Hogan ka lafda, Boogie Woogie’s audition, monkey man in Delhi… and what not. Oh man! It was fun.
Sharing the fun with you, presenting Mauj Masti by Samdish ft. Rajkummar Rao
