Rajkummar Rao
National Award-winning actor Rajkummar Rao said audience only like content-driven movies. He also added that it is the content that decides the budget of a film. Rao was speaking at the teaser launch of his forthcoming movie Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga. Along with him, the film's cast and crew including Sonam Kapoor, Vidhu Vinod Chopra, Juhi Chawla and Anil Kapoor was also present. Agreeing to Rao, Sonam said: "I think we should do a film if only the content is good."
Earlier this year, Rao has appeared in films like Omerta, Fanney Khan, Stree and Love Sonia; among which Stree, a small budget film did a business of approximately Rs 180 crore. Is success of the small budget films becoming a trend now? Rao said: "I do not think that the success of any film has anything to do with the budget, content decides the budget. If the content is strong and audience like the film, it will be a successful one…"
It was a double celebration as December 24 also marks the birthday of Mr India actor. Anil cut the birthday cake at the event amidst the presence of media and the film's cast. Asked about Anil's birthday plans, Sonam smiled and said: "we will have a nice family dinner. We will soon go for a vacation." This is the first time that Sonam has shared screen space with her father. "Apparently dad was sceptical on set, that's what he told my sister Rhea. Though he did not say anything to me, he was scared…" Sonam added.
