Stree 2 that also stars Shraddha Kapoor, Abhishek Banerjee, Aparshakti Khurrana and more has now become one of the highest grossing Hindi films. But it is time to make way for Rajkummar Rao’s next! Today, August 31, being his 40th birthday, the ace actor has dropped the first look of his upcoming movie and it surely is deadly. Rajkummar Rao is now all set to shed his boy-next-door look that he played in movies like Stree and more. In the film titled Maalik, Rajkummar Rao is going to be seen in a never-seen-before avatar. He is going to be a fierce gangster who wants to rule. The tagline of the film says “Paida nahi hue to kya, ban toh sakte hain (It doesn’t matter if you are not born one, you can become one).” Thus it is given that Maalik is going to be all about chills and thrill and some amazing action as in the poster, fans can see Rajkummar Rao holding a massive gun.
