Rajkummar Rao's big declaration after embracing fatherhood: Will try to do only two films a year from now

Actor Rajkummar Rao spilled the beans on life after becoming a dad, on The Right Angle with Sonal Kalra.

It’s barely been five months since he became a dad, and now, he’s becoming Dada. Playing ex-cricketer Sourav Ganguly in his biopic, we mean! November 2025 saw Rajkummar Rao stepping into a new role: a dad to daughter Parvati.

Chatting with Sonal Kalra, Chief Managing Editor, Entertainment and Lifestyle on The Right Angle show, he said life ever since has been ‘so beautiful’, “Whenever somebody talks to me about Parvati, there’s this big smile that is there on my face. One of my co-actors asked me once “What’s your daughter’s name?” I said, “Parvati.” He was like “Have you noticed how our faces change when we talk about our kids?” I was like, “I didn’t notice!” Everything has changed.”

As for changes within himself, he feels more vulnerable, “And even softer in life. I have decided now I am going to do way less work than what I was doing earlier. I’m going to try and do only two films a year. Now I am being very careful about the kind of films I do. I just want to really push myself and make Parvathy, along with my mother and Patralekhaa, proud.”
