The extremely talented Rajkummar Rao, who was last seen in the hard hitting film Aligarh , will now be seen in the Namrata Singh Gujral's Hollywood film 5 Weddings. The film, which will shot in Chandigarh and LA, will also feature Nargis Fakhri, Bo Derek, and Candy Clark in the lead roles.

Speaking about his role, a visibly excited Rajkummar Rao said that after Namrata Singh saw some of his work on Netflix and other platforms, her production house approached him to play the leading man who works with the Punjab police. He added that the film is basically a journey of life which will be symbolised by the ups and downs of a wedding celebration. He also added that the film will also deal about many perspectives like life, death, lost love, transgender tangles, cultural clashes and politics.

Besides 5 Weddings , Rajkummar Rao will also be seen in the rom-com Bareily Ki Barfi , which also features Kriti Sanon and Ayushmann Khurrana.
