The 36-year-old actor shared how before his acting career took off in Bollywood, he has taught students in a Gurugram school.

"The call center had just started coming up in Gurgaon and a lot of my friends had joined call center jobs and I was not really good with language," Rajkummar said.

During his second year of college, the 'Trapped' actor thought of making some extra pocket money and as a result, he picked up a job which he loved.

"I thought what should I do everybody making extra pocket money I was in second-year college? Then I thought let me do what I love so I just joined the school called KV public school in Gurgaon sector 14 - then I did 1 play for their annual day function. I was there for 3 months then I focused on myself and learnt," he added. Adding on why students love Rajkummar a lot he said, "Students love me because we were pretty much their age. There was not really age difference. So they treated me like a friend."

In his upcoming film 'Chhalaang', Rao will be seen essaying the role of a PT teacher.
