Rajkummar Rao, who will be seen next in Srikanth, finally broke his silence on plastic surgery rumours. This comes after his appearance sparked social media debate. Scroll down to know more details.
Rajkumar Rao is known for his brilliant and versatile acting in Bollywood. The actor gained prominence in the film industry for his prolific acting in films including Newton and Stree among others, which holds a special place in the hearts of millions of fans. Recently, Rajkummar Rao was caught up in the rumours of undergoing plastic surgery. The actor finally spoke up about the same.
Rajkummar Rao, who is currently promoting his upcoming biographical drama "Srikanth", had posed for shutterbugs at a concert here and many on social media commented how he looked different. He said, "I've not gone under the knife. I have not done any kind of plastic surgery. That picture, if you see it again, how is possible in 14 years, there's one picture and no other picture like that."
He further added, "It's certainly a touched-up picture because my skin is looking so flawless. Even I was amazed at how it was so flawless without any makeup and after shooting the whole day. "When I was looking for work and when I started working, people commented on my looks and everything. So, eight-nine years back, I did a little touch-up on my chin with fillers, which is like a half-hour job, because I wanted to feel more confident, which I do. I feel I look much better. But has it changed me as a person? Has it changed me as an artist? Not at all".
