Name Change for Success<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Did you know Rajkummar Rao originally spelled his name as Raj Kumar Yadav? Yes, that\u2019s his real name. He then changed the Yadav to Rao and added an extra \u2018M\u2019 to his first name, all because his Mom believes in numerology. Now, isn\u2019t that sweet?<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Martial_Arts_Enthusiast\"><\/span><b>2. Martial Arts Enthusiast<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Since Rao doesn\u2019t play many action-filled roles, one might find it surprising that Rao is a national-level gold medalist in Taekwondo.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Theatre_Roots\"><\/span><b>3. Theatre Roots<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Looking at his acting skills, many might have already guessed it, but yes, Rajkummar Rao was involved in theatre with Kshitij Theatre Group and the Shri Ram Centre in Delhi. He also enrolled in a two-year acting course at the prestigious Film and Television Institute of India (FTII).<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_First_Acting_Income\"><\/span><b>4. First Acting Income<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Rao&#8217;s journey to stardom wasn&#8217;t easy. After struggling for almost a year, he finally got his debut role in Love Sex Aur Dhokha. However, you\u2019d be surprised to know that even as a lead he only earned \u20b911,000!<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Extraordinary_Role-Prep\"><\/span><b>5. Extraordinary Role-Prep<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the most popular <\/span><b>Rajkummar Rao facts<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is how intensely he prepares for his roles. For Trapped, he only had a cup of black coffee and two carrots in a day. He even insisted on giving real blood for certain scenes to enhance authenticity.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_A_Passion_for_Dance\"><\/span><b>6. A Passion for Dance<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Not a lot of people know this, but Rajkummar Rao once revealed that he had auditioned for the dance reality show Boogie Woogie before finding his calling as an actor.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7_Fasts_Every_Friday\"><\/span><b>7. Fasts Every Friday<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A lesser-known personal detail is that our beloved Rajkummar Rao fasts every Friday. It\u2019s a practice he started at the age of 16 following his mother\u2019s fasts for Santoshi Ma.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"8_Unmatched_Dedication\"><\/span><b>8. Unmatched Dedication<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another great fact about Rajkummar Rao is his unmatched dedication to doing any role as realistically as possible. For example, to prepare for this role in Omerta, Rao went through grueling research. This included watching real-life execution videos to get into the mindset of his character. Now we know what resulted in one of his most chilling performances!<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"9_The_FTII_Connection\"><\/span><b>9. The FTII Connection<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Did you know Rajkummar Rao and his wife Patralekha knew each other from FTII? Although they started seeing each other after working on a short film together, the couple knew each other from their FTII days.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"10_Hottest_Vegan\"><\/span><b>10. Hottest Vegan<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, we all know Rajkummar Rao is vegetarian, but did you know he was also listed as India&#8217;s Hottest Vegetarian Celebrity in 2017 by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA)? In the same year, he also appeared on Forbes India&#8217;s Celebrity 100 list and GQ magazine&#8217;s list of 50 Most Influential Young Indians.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The <\/span><b>best Rajkummar Rao movies <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">are a testament to his dedication, versatility, and willingness to push boundaries.
