Rajkummar Rao’s ability was observed right when the nation saw him for the first time in Dibakar Banerjee’s ‘Love Sex Aur Dhokha.’ Three stories were interconnected via characters and cameras, filming their conflicts and chaos and building a unique cinematic experience.

In his best moment, he casually (and awkwardly) informs Khan he’ll come later when he sees him fighting with his wife. The audience is amused at his awkwardness, anyone would be. That’s why he’s a special actor.
