On our exciting episode of Sunday Brunch, we met with a dynamic duo from the upcoming movie Bhool Chook Maaf, Rajkummar Rao and Wamiqa Gabbi, for a wholesome Sunday brunch at Mumbai’s famous restaurant Bawri. Our Editor-in-Chief, Kamiya Jani, sat with them for more than just savouring all the delicious food. This episode was all about diving deep into their careers, how they started, their belief system, their relationships with their family members, and their love for food. During the insightful conversation, Rajkummar Rao expressed that he wholeheartedly believes in karma and God, as well as hard work.
Rajkummar Rao And Wamiqa Gabbi Speak About Their Belief Systems
Over the delicious fare at Bawri, including chole kulche, maa ki dal, potato basket, and a lot more, we discussed Rajkummar Rao and Wamiqa Gabbi’s belief system. If somebody has ever wronged them, do they believe in confrontation? They both gave a unified answer and stated that if somebody has knowingly wronged them, there’s no going back from there. However, if the relationship is important enough for them to save, they will confront the person and try to sort it out.
Rajkummar Rao also added that he is a huge believer in karma and God. He strongly believes that the only thing in his hands is to work hard and not worry about things that are not in his hands. While he believes that karma and God play a significant role in life, he also believes in working hard for everything that he wants to achieve.
When it comes to his career as an actor as well, from the get-go, he decided that he would always give his 100% and go out for auditions every day until his dreams came true. Even though it was his way of life, he definitely put in extra effort to make sure that he was giving his 100%. 10 years down the line, he didn’t want to regret and think that if only he had tried harder, he would be successful. That is certainly a great way to look at things!

Special Moments Of Their Career
During the conversation, Wamiqa Gabbi and Rajkummar Rao also talked about the moments that made them feel that they had finally achieved something. For Rajkummar Rao, it was when he got the call for his first-ever movie, Love, Sex Aur Dhokha. He mentioned that getting the call for your debut movie, that too in a lead role, is a big deal in this industry, and he still cherishes that moment.
Wamiqa Gabbi added that it has been a while since she started working in the industry, but recently she signed a movie that also stars Jaya Bachchan. And that’s when her father called her and said, “Hun bani na gal,” Punjabi for “Now you have finally done something.” She added that for her family, this is certainly a great milestone, and they can finally feel that their daughter has achieved something in her career.
Rajkummar Rao and Wamiqa Gabbi also spilt their favourite hangout spots in Chandigarh and Gurgaon. Watch the full episode on the Curly Tales YouTube channel to know what they are.
