Rajkummar Rao, a formidable presence in the industry, is presently engrossed in promotional activities for his upcoming movie, Srikanth: Aa raha hai sabki aankhein kholne. This biographical film narrates the inspiring journey of Srikanth Bolla, an entrepreneur with visual impairment. In a recent interview with India Forums, Rajkummar engaged in an open dialogue discussing his portrayal in the movie and various other aspects. 

When asked about a film of his that Rajkummar would want to get re-released in theatres, he said, "

I wish 'Badhai Do' could be re-release in theatres because 'uski timing thodi off thi'. It was the first film after COVID-19, and it, of course, did decently at the box office, It was not great, but then it really boosted on OTT and Netflix. So I wished wo film release ho kyuki wo mere dil ke boht kareeb hai. I am very proud of that film, very well made so I want the audience to go back to the theatres to watch it.
