From
one
character-role
films
to
back-to-back
releases
as
a
leading
man,
Rajkummar
Rao
has
come
a
long
way
and
the
actor
says
he
wants
to
reach
a
point
in
his
career
where
people
wait
to
see
him
on
the
silver
screen.
With
Trapped,
Behen
Hogi
Teri,
Bareilly
Ki
Barfi
and
now
Newton,
the
actor
says
he
understands
that
he
will
need
to
keep
working
hard
constantly
to
remain
alive
in
the
public
memory.
In
an
interview
with
PTI,
Rajkummar
says,
"My
plan
is
to
do
one
film
in
two
years.
I
know
I
have
to
have
the
demand.
People
should
wait
for
my
films
to
come
and
it's
in
process.
"I
know
that
I
have
started
on
that
journey.
But
for
that
I
have
to
keep
pushing
myself.
I
want
to
keep
telling
people
that
I'm
here
and
I'm
working."
The
actor
says
another
reason
he
signed
up
to
do
these
projects
is
because
all
the
scripts
were
"exciting".
"I
just
couldn't
say
no
to
these
scripts.
I
knew
I
had
to
push
myself
when
it
comes
to
dates
and
all
physical
transformation.
But
there
was
no
other
way," he
says.
Rajkummar
plays
Newton
Kumar,
a
greenhorn
government
clerk
who
tries
to
conduct
a
fair
election
in
a
conflict-hit
area
of
Chhattisgarh.
Also
featuring
Raghubir
Yadav,
Pankaj
Tripathi,
Sanjay
Mishra
and
Anjali
Patil,
the
film
releases
tomorrow.
