When Rajkummar Rao had just Rs 18 in Mumbai! "My mother supported me a lot," revealed the actor
Rajkummar Rao , one of Bollywood's most acclaimed actors today, once opened up about the intense financial struggles he faced during the early days of his acting journey. During an old podcast, the actor offered an emotional throwback to a time when he had only Rs 18 in his bank account, unsure where his next meal would come from. Surviving Mumbai on biscuits and juice Rajkummar, during his conversation with Ranveer Allahabadia, recalled how, in the absence of steady work, he often skipped lunch and sustained himself with just a packet of Parle G biscuits and a Frooti, a meal that cost only ₹4 back then. "My mother supported me a lot. Whenever I ran out of money, she would somehow arrange it and send it to me," he shared. The actor lived in a flat with two others, keeping expenses minimal while chasing a dream that often seemed out of reach. Turning to Friends for Dinner Reflecting on his lowest moment, when he was left with just ₹18, Rajkummar remembered calling friends from his FTII network in Mumbai, asking if he could join them for dinner. 'A lot of seniors and juniors live here. So, you can ring anybody and ask what they're having for dinner and if you can come,' he said, highlighting the unspoken bond of support among struggling artists. Cycling 70 Km a Day with Dreams in His Pocket The actor also reminisced about his early training days at Shri Ram Centre in Delhi, where he began studying acting at age 18. Unaware of how to get a subsidized student bus pass, Rajkummar cycled 70 km daily to attend classes. To stay motivated, he would listen to inspirational songs like Lakshya Ko Har Haal Mein Pana Hai and Papa Kehte Hain on his walkman. 'It sounds filmy now,' he said, 'but it used to be a lot of fun.' First Salary at Age 13 In another candid moment, Rajkummar recalled how he earned ₹300 tutoring a young girl when he was in the 8th standard, his first salary, which he used to buy groceries for his family. Today, those small sacrifices form the foundation of a remarkable journey from hardship to stardom. On the work front, Rajkummar was last seen in the recently released film 'Bhool Chuk Maaf'.

Box Office: Housefull 5 set to be widest Akshay Kumar release of all time; To arrive on 5000 screens in India
The much-awaited Housefull 5 is set to hit theaters with a bang, securing the widest release ever for a film in the popular comedy franchise. The movie will release in 5000 screens across India. This grand release puts Housefull 5 in a league of its own, even with strong competition like Mani Ratnam's Thug Life hitting theaters around the same time. Despite the clash, Housefull 5 has managed to lock in its impressive screen count. All that now matters is positive word of mouth and then it will be good to go. With a whopping budget of Rs 225 crore (excluding print and advertising costs), Housefull 5 is one of the biggest investments in the franchise yet. The good news for producers is that roughly Rs 135 crore has already been recovered through non-theatrical earnings like satellite rights, digital streaming, and music deals. This gives the film a solid financial cushion. However, to be declared a hit, Housefull 5 needs to aim high at the box office. The worldwide collection of Rs 325 crore or more is required to cover costs and deliver profits. With such a massive screen count, the stage is set for the film to draw huge crowds. What makes Housefull 5 even more exciting is the producers' bold experiment with its release. For the first time, the film will have two different versions, each featuring a different killer in its murder-mystery plot. This unique move has sparked curiosity among fans, adding a layer of intrigue to the already chaotic and fun Housefull universe. Directed by Tarun Mansukhani, Housefull 5 boasts a stellar cast, including Akshay Kumar, Abhishek Bachchan, Riteish Deshmukh, and more. The franchise has always been a crowd-pleaser, blending slapstick humor with over-the-top drama. This time, the stakes are higher with a bigger budget and a wider release. The 5000-screen rollout ensures the film reaches every corner of India, from metros to smaller towns. The makers are banking on the franchise's loyal fanbase and the festive season to drive footfalls. While Thug Life poses a challenge, Housefull 5 has carved out its space. The massive screen count shows the confidence distributors have in the film. If the comedy clicks and the dual-version gimmick pays off, Housefull 5 could set new benchmarks for the franchise. All eyes are now on the audience. Will they flock to theaters for this laughter-packed ride? Only time will tell, but the stage is set. Have you booked your tickets for Housefull 5 yet?
