Rajkummar Rao’s latest film Badhaai Do received fair reviews from the critics and audiences alike and is now collecting well at the box office due to positive word of mouth. While Rajkummar has shown his brilliance as an actor once again on the big screen, a Behind The Scenes footage has been posted by the film's sound designer that proves his brilliance off-screen as well. © Instagram/Rajkummar Rao Anish John, who is the sound designer of Badhaai Do, shared a BTS footage where Rajkummar Rao can be seen pretending to pull a suitcase while performing a scene. Applauding the actor for being a team player, John wrote, “This is what brilliant actors do… they collaborate. They let everyone do their respective jobs while still being great at what they do. Here we see @rajkummar_rao pretending to pull a suitcase rather than insisting on pulling a noisy one which would have made the dialogue impossible to record. Thank you for this brother.” Take a look at the video below: View this post on Instagram Reacting to Anish John’s caption, the humble actor responded saying, “Mere bhai. Filmmaking is a team work and each and every department and every person is equally important yahi toh seekha hamne FTII mein and in this case it was you brother.” Check out his response below: © Junglee Pictures Meanwhile, Badhaai Do opened to low response on its day one with collections of Rs 1.65 crore. However, it saw quite a good jump in collections on its second day as it made Rs 2.72 crore followed by Rs 3.45 crore. It further capitalised on Valentine's Day and its day four collections were even better than its day one. © Junglee Pictures Sharing its box office, trade analyst Taran Adarsh wrote, “#BadhaaiDo gets the benefit of #ValentinesDay [Mon; Day 4], records better numbers than Day 1... Overall total is on the lower side, but the trending remains good... Tue-Thu crucial... Fri 1.65 cr, Sat 2.72 cr, Sun 3.45 cr, Mon 1.85 cr.

Rajkummar Rao recently posted a before-after picture on his instagram, showing off his phenomenal transformation for the movie Badhaai Do where he plays the role of a gay cop. The role of Shardul Thakur required him to put on quite a bit of muscle, which he did and how! View this post on InstagramBeing a pure vegetarian, it wasn't easy for Rajkummar to manage his diet as putting on that much muscle requires you to include enough protein in your diet on a daily basis. However, he did stick to his diet and did not give up on consistent workouts to nail his transformation. View this post on InstagramHowever, celebrity transformations cannot (rather, should not) be compared to the transformations that we regular folks go through, as we don't have a lot of the perks that they get to enjoy. However, does it mean that regular folks are at a disadvantage? It doesn't have to be so, not at all. Even if you are a pure vegetarian like Rajkummar Rao and can't afford expensive protein shakes, there is a great alternative which is within everyone's budget. View this post on InstagramWe all know that paneer and other dairy items are good sources of protein, but it may be difficult to incorporate enough quantity of these items in your daily diet from the perspective of total protein dependence. Contrary to popular belief, dal is not a good source of protein as it contains more carbs than proteins in terms of its macronutrients. What then, can be considered as the best vegetarian source of protein which is also not expensive? via GIPHY The answer is: Soya. Yes, soya in any form - be it chunks or granules, make for an excellent source of protein. It has about 52 grams of protein per 100 gm weight, which is way more than meat and dairy. via GIPHY Soya is great for bodybuilding, and the theory about it increasing oestrogen in the body and giving rise to manboobs is mostly a myth, as that happens under extraordinary circumstances (one needs to consume kilos of soya in a day for that to happen). So, enjoy your soya bean sabji and soya paratha guilt free, as they will help you pack some serious muscle. View the full article

Is Rajkummar & Bhumi’s Badhaai Do Homophobic? Here’s What He Has To Say
ADMIN posted a blog entry in FDF Online News
It's 2022 but our outlook continues to be regressive in more ways than we can imagine. In this era of sexual enlightenment, people still have issues with same-*** relationships and are homophobic. Despite serious stigmas attached to it, Bollywood hasn’t done much to improve the situation. We have seen several LGBTQ led and themed films in the past couple of years but it failed to make an impact as it focused on making it rather entertaining. View this post on InstagramRajkummar Rao and Bhumi Pednekar’s Badhaai Do is set to be released on February 11, 2022 and is based on same-*** relationships. The standalone sequel to 2018’s Badhaai Ho shows how their characters chose to get married to each other in order to get their respective families off their backs. The characters decided to hide their homosexuality and it’s what people are finding problematic. Here’s the trailer: This concept is called “lavender marriage” and people are calling their entire approach very homophobic. In an exclusive conversation with News18, the Kai Po Che actor was asked about homophobic treatment to the movie to which he agreed and stated that marriage is not ideal in such situations. To know more about this concept, watch this video: “Well, yes. It’s not an ideal situation. I totally agree with that. But there are so many people out there in the society and I have met a couple of them personally who are in this arrangement. So it’s a story about those people," Rajkummar said. View this post on InstagramHe also went on to add, “I don’t know about others, but lot of people will take notice (of representation of homosexuality in Badhaai Do) and things will change. Cinema is definitely growing from where it was earlier. We are experimenting with stories now and I hope there will be much more representation and it will be way more inclusive than what it was.” He also mentioned that how he is getting praises for breaking stereotypes by playing a gay cop. View this post on InstagramThe film is directed by Harshvardhan Kulkarni and written by Akshat Ghildial and Suman Adhikary. Apart from Rajkummar Rao and Bhumi Pednekar, the movie also stars Seema Pahwa, Sheeba Chadha, Lovleen Mishra, Nitish Pandey and Sakshi Bhushan among other actors in key roles. Excited to watch this movie? Let us know in the comments section below. View the full article -
The much awaited trailer for Badhaai Do is finally out and as expected, it is garnering praise on social media. If the OG Badhaai Ho was any indication, this one should also deal with a so-called 'uncomfortable topic' with the same maturity and tenderness, with impressive humour levels. Take a look at the trailer if you haven't already. While we are always happy to see Rajkummar Rao on screen thanks to his inimitable screen persona, this time, it was more exciting for everyone because of his never before seen, super muscular avatar. Rajkummar went through a 'crazy muscle transformation', and plays a cop in the movie. His entry scene showcases his ripped physique that he is unabashedly admiring in the mirror - he even goes ahead and ends up kissing his own bicep. © Junglee Pictures And why won't he? When you have biceps like that, they deserve some love. However, not everyone has them but everyone wants them. It's honestly not very difficult to build defined and kissable biceps like that, except most people end up committing some stupid mistakes in the gym that don't let them build the same. via GIPHY Keeping that in mind, here are 4 mistakes to avoid in the gym to build defined, kissable biceps like Rajkummar Rao in Badhaai Do, in 6-8 weeks. 1. Avoid weights you can't handle © iStock This is the ultimate gain killer, but gym bros often swear by it. How often have you seen someone load up a barbell with heavy weights, only to use their whole body with a jerk to lift the weight instead of actually focusing on the bicep - which is the whole point of the exercise? Momentum will target every other part like your back and your shoulder, instead of actually focusing on your bicep. Read point number 1 and decrease the weight to do a proper rep! 3. Avoid focusing only on DB/BB curls © iStock Avoid putting in all your efforts only in one kind of bicep exercise. Understand the musculature and focus on all the heads. Even though most people focus only on dumbbell or barbell curls, it is essential to incorporate other exercises too like the hammer curls to increase the thickness. You can also use the pull up bar to your advantage by incorporating different kinds of chin ups and hanging drills. 4. Not focusing on triceps © iStock Yes, we're noting down bicep training mistakes, but this one belongs here. The human arm musculature is formed of 30% bicep muscles, and 70% tricep muscles. No matter how hard you train your biceps, avoiding your triceps will cost you size and fullness, apart from muscular imbalance. Focus on triceps more than your biceps in fact, and you'll be amazed to see your biceps are looking much bigger and more defined because of the muscular symmetry you'll achieve out of it. Avoid these 4 bicep training mistakes in the gym, and thank us in 6-8 weeks! All the best fam! View the full article

However, there were a few who questioned the need of showing the whole story in the trailer, “#BadhaaiDoTrailer looks ENTERTAINING!!

Karan Johar's Dharma Productions recently announced Mr & Mrs Mahi, a cricket-themed film featuring Rajkummar Rao and Janhvi Kapoor in lead roles. Directed by Gunjan Saxena: The Kargil Girl fame Sharan Sharma, the movie marks Rajkummar & Janhvi's second collaboration onscreen after the horror-comedy Roohi which was released earlier this year.

Rajkummar Rao and Patralekhaa’s relationship is a testimony to the fact that true love exists. They got married in an intimate wedding ceremony on November 15. The wedding ceremony took place in the presence of the couple’s close friends and family members. They got married at the Oberoi Sukhvilas Spa Resort, an 8,000-acre luxury hotel in the Siswan Forest Range, at the foothills of the Himalayas in New Chandigarh. The couple shared a wedding video wherein they are seen bashing patriarchal norms. Here’s the video: View this post on Instagram If you have seen the video, you would agree with the fact it’s magical and they look deeply in love. Rajkummar greets her with loud whistles before exchanging hand gestures for 'I love you.' Patralekhaa said, “Raj, it's been 11 years but I just feel like I have known you for a lifetime and not only this lifetime. I am sure it has been many lifetimes.” Rajkummar said that their connection is so deep that it doesn’t feel like they have known each other for these many years. “Honestly, it has been 10-11 years but it still feels like we've just started dating. We just love each other's company so much, we thought let's just do it. Let's just be husband and wife,” he says. As they exchanged the ‘varmalas’, Rajkummar tells Patralekhaa, “We keep saying this to each other but we are soulmates and I truly, truly believe that. Thank you for being my wife.” View this post on Instagram The biggest highlight is that Rajkummar finishes the video by putting vermilion on her forehead and asking her to do the same. With this, Rajkummar has shunned the patriarchal norms and proved that he is a real man and also a true feminist. The idea of feminism is to make sure that both genders are on an equal platform and, Raj and Patralekhaa are proof that equals can be happy together. View this post on Instagram In one of her earlier interviews with Humans of Bombay, Patralekhaa revealed how she first perceived Raj when she first saw him in Love *** Aur Dhokha (LSD). She said, "I thought that the weird guy he played in the film was actually what he was like. My perception of him was already tarnished. He told me later, that he had first seen me in an ad and thought, 'I'm going to marry her.' It was so ironic." View the full article

Not all Bollywood stars start big or have a dream launch in the Hindi film industry. A lot of them, especially those who do not belong to the film background, have to struggle and start out their careers with minor roles in TV and films before they get their big break. Rajkummar Rao, who is now one of the most bankable actors in Bollywood, has a similar story. © Instagram/Rajkummar Rao Rao has a glorious trajectory in films. He has given some of the best performances in Bollywood and many awards and accolades to his name. However, his first role was barely a three-second, uncredited appearance in a big movie. It was an Amitabh Bachchan starrer, to be precise. Rao recently shared this on the show ‘Kaun Banega Crorepati 13’ which is hosted by Bachchan. © Instagram/Amitabh Bachchan The promo of the Shandaar Shanivaar episode shows Rao asking Bachchan to stand and look into the camera for five seconds with him. He shared the reason for this request was he wanted to share the screen with the superstar in his debut film but couldn’t. © Instagram/Sony TV “In my first film Rann, I did a three-second role in the film. I really wanted to do a scene with you, but I didn’t get the chance. So I thought instead of three seconds, I’ll get to share the screen with you for five seconds,” he said. © Instagram/Sony TV He was talking about 2010 movie Rann where he played a newsreader that appears for a few seconds, while Amitabh played the CEO of the same newschannel, Vijay Harshwardhan Malik. © PVR Pictures "Sir has been my co-actor so what if he doesn't remember that I was in the film?” he said to Kriti when she told Bachchan, “Sir, he has said that you've asked him to call you AB ji.” To this, Bachchan humbly responds, “So what? AB is my name.” Rajkummar Rao and Kriti Sanon will be making an appearance on the show this Saturday to promote their upcoming movie Hum Do Humare Do. © Instagram/Rajkummar Rao It was Rajkummar’s first minor role in Rann for which he wasn’t even given name credits. His next movie was his first big break Love *** Aur Dhokha released in 2010 that brought him fame and success. And, there was no turning back. © Instagram/Rajkummar Rao We almost forgot the small role he played in Rann. Here’s the clip in case you forgot too. View the full article

One look at Rajkummar Rao’s style files and you will know that he is a guy who is pretty low-maintenance when it comes to fashion. Still, he looks uber stylish and put together. Call it the efforts of a bus of people who take care of his styling and grooming or his knack to carry himself wonderfully in the most basic piece of clothing, Rao has emerged as one of the most stylish stars in Bollywood. © Instagram/Rajkummar Rao This is probably why he was a natural choice for H&M to feature in festive fashion film, ‘Brighter Than Ever’ this year which captures the many emotions and feelings of celebrating Diwali with friend and family--or alone--while looking stylish in their breezy and chic festive collection. © H&M We sat him down for a quick chat where he talked about his collaboration with H&M, his one trusted outfit for Diwali every year and how he makes the festival more sustainable as far as fashion is concerned. Here are the excerpts from the interview. Tell us about the H&M's campaign. How is it different from last year's ‘Brighter Than Ever’ campaign and how was your experience filming for it? With an amazing and hospitable crew, it was truly the easiest and most comfortable shoot. The entire experience of shooting with such an interesting and diverse cast along with the brand and production crew, coming together on a set to shoot with a fun brand like H&M was definitely exciting and I am looking forward to the response from the customers and brand friends. The film is divided into three scenarios with each one of us highlighting different emotions: excitement, joy, longing, love, and overall a shared desire to celebrate like we used to. My character in the film is a party of one that brings out the pure and simple joy of just celebrating after these tumultuous times. What is your go-to Diwali outfit every year? Will it be different this year? I feel Diwali is that time of the year when everyone comes together for a long week of celebrations with each one of us representing our personal style from traditional festive looks to casual indo-fusion styles. © Instagram/Rajkummar Rao Whether we prefer monochromatic looks or bright colours, we make it a point to add that bit of festive glam to our outfits during this season, which is so special for all of us. I personally love warmer shades for celebratory occasions, whether it’s a traditional kurta or formal jackets. With celebrations becoming more intimate, we’ve been able to really experiment with our festive looks that go beyond the traditional kurta set. What is your favourite piece from H&M's new festive edit? When it comes to my personal style, I feel good when I am wearing my most comfortable set of clothes. H&M is known for offering relaxed yet smart silhouettes that can be dressed up or down to fit the occasion. If I had to pick one piece, it would be the floral print bomber jacket – it’s effortless, functional and versatile. It’s the perfect statement piece that I can easily change into after a long day of shooting for an evening out with friends and family. © H&M How can we make Diwali more sustainable this year as far as fashion is considered? It’s all about the little habits and small changes that gradually change everything. As far as fashion is concerned, we can opt for more conscious materials and lifestyle choices throughout the year and not only for a specific time frame – choose garments made from more sustainable materials, rewear and recycle older clothes. © Instagram/Rajkummar Rao A lot of brands have started offering materials that are organic and recycled with great technological innovations. For this collaboration with H&M, something that stands out for me is the interesting mix of more sustainable materials that have been used for this collection - Organic Cotton, Recycled Polyester and even Recycled Silk. Since the collection accommodates styles to easily transition from day to night, what are some quick tips to look put-together for men who are low-maintenance. I think most of us can agree that H&M offers a combination of style and comfort in the most effortless manner. This collection is innovative, fashionable and cool with a range of regular fit shirts to slim fit trousers, relaxed joggers and utility pieces in neutral shades of white and beige along with pops of mint green and fuchsia prints. © Instagram/Rajkummar Rao With such a wide range of fits to suit your style and versatile color palette, there is something for everyone from everyday essentials to the freshest styles. You can mix and match separates or keep it simple with overshirts paired with relaxed fit trousers – it is about how you wear it! View the full article

ADMIN posted a blog entry in FDF Online News
Rajkummar Rao is inarguably one of the most versatile actors in Bollywood who has created a niche for himself on sheer talent and hard work. No godfather, no film background, nor is he the most muscular or classically handsome man in cinema but he is touted as one of the best, critically acclaimed and most sought after actors today. © Vishesh Films Although he has done several commercial films like Bareilly Ki Barfi, Stree and Shaadi Mein Zaroor Aana, all blockbusters which are a testimony to his unparalleled acting chops, there are some of his roles which we don’t talk about and appreciate enough. © Phantom Films Here are six such underrated movies of Rajkummar Rao where he played an unforgettable role and proved he is among the finest actors in Bollywood. Make sure to add them to your watchlist: 1. Omerta (2017) © Swiss Entertainment Rao plays the titular role of British terrorist Ahmed Omar Saeed Sheikh who was the mastermind behind the kidnappings of foreign tourists in India in 1994. His acting was praised by the critics but the film remains to be the most underrated movies of all time. 2. Trapped (2016) © Phantom Films This movie is not for the faint-hearted but totally worth a watch for Rajkummar’s incredible performance as Shaurya, who is trapped in his under-construction flat in a skyscraper, with no means to exit or communicate with anyone. He leaves us sitting on the edge of the seat the whole time and teary-eyed in the end. 3. Shahid (2013) © Anurag Kashyap Films Rajkummar’s portrayal of a lawyer and human rights activist Shahid Azmi, who was jailed for plotting against the state and later assassinated in 2010, is one of the most memorable roles he has played onscreen. 4. Aligarh (2015) © Eros Entertainment Yes, although the movie basically revolves around Manoj Bajpayee’s character, Rajkummar cannot go unnoticed as the sympathetic journalist who supports him. Aligarh is one of those films that offer brilliance, originality and breakthrough content in cinema, but stays unappreciated still. 5. Newton (2017) © Drishyam Films Rajkummar's Nutan ‘Newton’, a diligent government clerk, is sent on election duty in a Naxal-controlled town and is hell-bent on making locals come and vote. This film is also inspired by true incidents and leaves you in splits one moment while prompting you to think hard the very next moment. 6. Citylights (2014) © Vishesh Films This movie taps into the grim reality of people struggling to make ends meet in big cities.
