Rajkummar
Rao
will
soon
be
seen
in
the
role
of
a
Haryanvi
PT
teacher
in
Chhalaang.
The
movie
also
marks
his
fifth
collaboration
with
ace
filmmaker
Hansal
Mehta
after
Shahid,
Citylights,
Aligarh,
and
Omerta.
In
a
recent
interview,
the
talented
actor
spoke
about
his
role
and
experience
working
on
the
film.
Rajkummar
said,
“It
was
fantastic
working
with
Hansal
sir
again
on
such
an
intriguing
story.
The
two
of
us
have
a
wonderful
chemistry
which
has
resulted
in
beautiful
stories.
This
film
is
the
protagonist’s
aspirational
journey
with
loads
of
fun.
My
prep
involved
getting
the
Haryanvi
accent
right
and
learning
about
the
fitness
routine
taught
to
kids
in
school.”

The
actor
also
shared
his
real-life
experience
as
a
teacher
at
his
drama
school.
“While
I
was
in
college,
I
taught
dance
and
dramatics
at
the
DAV
Public
School
in
Gurgaon
for
a
few
hours
in
the
morning
before
lectures.
I
was
more
of
a
friend
to
my
students
than
a
teacher
because
there
was
not
much
of
an
age
gap.
In
fact,
I
was
the
youngest
teacher
in
school
and
as
enthusiastic
about
honing
my
acting
skills
as
the
extra
money.
I
even
directed
a
play,
Sikander,
during
this
three-month
stint.
It
was
a
historical
and
showcased
the
battle
between
Alexander
and
Porus,”
revealed
Raj.
The
makers
of
Chhalaang
recently
unveiled
the
first
poster
of
the
film
to
extremely
positive
reviews
and
reception.
The
social
comedy
also
stars
Nushrat
Bharucha
as
the
female
lead
and
has
been
written
by
Luv
Ranjan,
Aseem
Arrora
and
Zeishan
Quadri.
The
film
is
all
set
to
hit
the
silver
screens
on
March
13,
2020.
