Rajkummar Rao

Rajkummar Rao is awaiting the release of his next, HIT: The First Case opposite Sanya Malhotra, his first remake of a South film. Speaking about what convinced him to come on board the actor says, "I was never fond of remakes but had to do HIT because I was so involved with the story, it was so engaging. A very well made thriller. We make thrillers in our country but very few are really good ones. This was one of those that I really enjoyed because I`m a film lover myself, I watch a lot of content. For me to get involved and like it, I thought I have to do this one. Then I spoke to Sailesh (director) and he told me he wants to take it to a wider audience by making it in Hindi and he wants to change so many things. Since he has made it once, whatever he couldn`t do there or the mistakes he made in that film, he could rectify in this one. That`s why it is what it is."
