Gajraj Rao’s wife, Sanjana Rao, has expressed her response when he told her about his concerns over his character in the 2018 film Badhaai Ho. He said in a recent interview that she never called him “Ranbir Kapoor” or “Ranveer Singh,” and that he should take the role.
Badhaai Ho, directed by Amit Sharma, is about a lady in her 50s who becomes pregnant and must face the wrath of society. Surekha Sikri, Ayushmann Khurrana, Neena Gupta, and Sanya Malhotra star in the film. On Monday, it celebrated its three-year anniversary. Several National Awards have been given to the film.
He remarked in an interview with the Mumbai Mirror, “My life was altered by Badhaai Ho! Amit Sharma, the filmmaker, and I have been friends for over two decades. I was blown away when he read the script to me. ‘Is this for real?’ was my initial thinking. ‘Am I really getting this offer?’ I wondered before comprehending that it was… But then my fears surfaced, and I began to wonder if I could do justice to the character of Jitendra Kaushik, as I had never been offered such a significant role before. Amit, on the other hand, was dead set on casting me.”
