The speaking point of the film Raabta when the
trailer came out was Sushant Singh Rajput and Kriti Sanon's undisputable
chemistry and Jim Sarbh's scary evil avatar. But what one may have missed is
the blink and miss appearance of an old man at the end of the trailer.
That man is none other than Rajkummar Rao who plays a
324-year-old man in the film as per to a famous daily.
His character is there only for a brief period of time but
his presence is crucial and effective in the storyline. The director Dinesh
Vijan and producer Homi Adajania, as well as Rajkummar, sat down with the
creative team for weeks to finalise the look. They seemingly went through 16
look tests before finalising on the last one.
Talking about his character, Rajkummar told, "I did
this friendly appearance for Dinoo (Vijan) and Homi. It was too much fun. Dinoo
gave me a lot of freedom as an actor. The prosthetic make-up would take hours
to put on and take off. I sweat profusely under a thick layer of make-up. It
needed quite a bit of patience."
Dinesh further added, "The idea of prosthetics making
him look totally unrecognisable excited him. He was kind enough me to do me a
favour. Though tedious, he sat through it."
Rajkummar even posted a still of his character from the film
and it will surely shock you. He looks absolutely unrecognisable.
Raabta is scheduled to release on June 9, 2017.
