MUMBAI: Rajkummar Rao does not shy away from going the extra mile for his characters and for his next project, a web series based on the life of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, the actor has gone half bald.
The 32-year-old actor took to Twitter to share the new haircut and announced that the makers will release the first look soon.
“Got a hair cut done for #Bose. We’ll soon put out the first look as Bose. Until then, these are the post hair cut pictures. Thank you @AalimHakim (sic)” he wrote along side two pictures of him wearing a maroon t-shirt and glasses like that of Bose’s.
In the second photo, Rao is posing with a vintage telephone.
The ALT Balaji online streaming show will be directed by Rao’s frequent collaborator Hansal Mehta.
The web series will try to showcase the untold story of Netaji’s life.
The series also stars actress Patralekhaa. She will play the role of an elitist Bengal woman.
