Rajkummar Rao has stirred up a storm of speculation after attending Diljit Dosanjh’s concert. The actor was sporting a new look that created a buzz among social media users. Fans were taken aback by his transformation, leading to debates about whether he had undergone plastic surgery. However, Rao has come forward to address these rumours. He asserted that the viral picture is simply a result of a “bad photo.”
Rajkummar Rao Clears the Air:
In an interview with Bollywood Hungama, Rajkummar Rao refuted claims of plastic surgery, attributing the drastic change in appearance to the quality of the photograph. He clarified, “I have not done any plastic surgery, guys. It is just a bad photo. That is just a touch-up photo. I wish I had such clean and flawless skin because it looks like that. I was not wearing any makeup. But I must say it looks weird even for me. It was just a bad moment caught on camera. I have not done any plastic surgery.”
Past Cosmetic Procedures:
While Rao denied plastic surgery, he did acknowledge a past cosmetic procedure. “Having said that, about eight years ago, I did some filler work on my chin because I wanted to look confident. My dermatologist suggested it and I did,” he admitted. Rao emphasized that such enhancements were geared towards boosting confidence and were not indicative of a penchant for plastic surgery. He added, “Do I feel confident after that? Yes. Have I done better films after that? It has changed the perception. Acting is a visual medium. I am not against it. If somebody wants to boost their confidence and the science is available, then why not? But no plastic surgery. It is too expensive and time-consuming.”
