Rajkummar Rao reveals about his first meeting experience with Srikanth Bolla!

One of the most adaptable actors in the business is Rajkummar Rao. In his upcoming biography, Srikanth, he will play the distinguished visually handicapped industrialist Srikanth Bolla. In a recent interview, the actor talked about his first encounter with the industrialist before the movie's release.

 

In addition to talking about his first encounter, Rajkummar also mentioned how he was first afraid to play Srikanth Bolla.

 

Rajkummar Rao talked about his bizarre first encounter with Srikanth Bolla, whose life he will be playing in the biopic Srikanth, during a media conference.

 

He revealed, "He (Srikanth Bolla) is witty, confident, go-getter and loves talking... I was totally zapped because he's so confident about everything in life. Sometimes I would ask him (director Hiranandani) that 'Are you sure he's blind because he comes across as if he is way more normal than us'."

 

Rao also mentioned how initially he was a little afraid to play Bolla. The seasoned actor emphasized how much he enjoys difficulties and revealed that there are things that worry him but also excite him.

 

"And 'Srikanth' did that to me. I've never played a visually impaired man before. I didn't know if I would be able to do it. But that's the fun where you push yourself out of your comfort zone. There was so much research that had to be done. Whenever I get an opportunity like that, I totally cherish it," Rao told.

 

For those who do not know, Srikanth Bolla is an Indian businessman and the creator of Bollant Industries, a company that uses unskilled and disabled workers to produce environmentally friendly goods. In 1992, he was born blind in a small Indian hamlet close to Hyderabad. His life's path has been inspirational.

After returning to India, Srikanth started his entrepreneurial career with the goal of establishing accessible job possibilities for individuals with disabilities. The movie, starring Rajkummar Rao, will honor his extraordinary life.
