Rajkummar Rao and Patralekhaa, who first shared the screen in the 2014 film Citylights, tied the knot in an intimate ceremony in Chandigarh on November 15, 2021. Their professional partnership has now beautifully extended into a lifelong personal partnership and a growing family.
On the professional front, Rajkummar remains busy. He recently completed shooting for his upcoming film, 'Nikam,' a biopic on India's celebrated public prosecutor Ujjwal Nikam. The actor expressed deep gratitude for the role, calling it a privilege. Meanwhile, the couple has also ventured into production, having launched their own production house, KAMPA Films. The name is a touching tribute to their mothers, created by combining the initials of their names.
