Role in 'Bareilly Ki Barfi' very unique: Rajkummar Rao

Actor Rajkummar Rao, who is playing the role of Pritam Vidrohi in forthcoming film "Bareilly Ki Barfi", says the kind of variations the character has is very unique.

Director Nitesh Tiwari had narrated the script of "Bareilly Ki Barfi" to Rajkummar before the release of Aamir Khan starrer "Dangal".

"The moment he started reading Pritam Vidrohi, I was sold that I am doing this film. The kind of variation that Pritam has is very unique," Rajkummar said in a statement.

Rajkummar was impressed with Tiwari's narrating style.

"It was one of the best narrations, and personally I prefer reading my scripts, but Nitesh sir is such an amazing actor himself and he knew his characters inside out," the actor added.

The story of "Bareilly Ki Barfi" revolves around three persons -- Chirag, Pritam and Bitti played by Ayushmann Khurrana, Rajkummar and Kriti Sanon.

The film is releasing on August 18.
