Rajkummar Rao: The Golden Boy of Maddock Films
Rajkummar Rao has established himself as a versatile Bollywood actor, and his collaboration with Maddock Films has only solidified his reputation as the go-to actor for emotional dramas and light comedy. From his start in Stree (2018) to his new project, Bhool Chuk Maaf (2025), Rao proves time and again to be capable of moving through genres easily and has made himself the golden boy of Maddock Films.
The Start: Stree — The Biggest Horror Comedy from Maddock Films
Rao’s catalogue with Maddock Films began with Stree (2018) — which was a step away from traditional horror & comedy films and introduced the world to the new-age horror comedy. Directed by Amar Kaushik, Stree achieved the right dynamic between horror, humour, and emotion and became one of the top-grossing films of the year.
With Shraddha Kapoor, Rao’s role as Vicky, the man lost in a small-town mystery, was both funny and genuine. Stree touched upon issues in society regarding gender roles while having the thrills of being a supernatural narrative.
It ultimately turned into one of the most successful horror comedies Bollywood has ever seen, and it raised the bar for others to follow.
The Consistent Performers: Stree 2 – Box Office Smash Hit
Stree was successful, so much so that Rajkummar Rao is reprising his role in Stree 2 (2024), where he teams up with Shraddha Kapoor once again. The plot moves forward with the infamous witch, but because of Rajkummar’s comedic timing and charismatic personality, the sequel has become a box office smash hit.
Everyone bought tickets and rushed to the cinema to make it one of the highest-grossing movies of the year. He has proved he can easily glide between acts, making his character believable, and his successful history as an actor has now made him into an in-demand actor.
