Rajkummar Rao says he feels overwhelmed that people are comparing him to Ranbir Kapoor and Ranveer Singh but the actor insists he never sees competition in any art form, especially acting.

Rajkummar has been on a career high with consecutive commercial hits and critically acclaimed films since 2017.

When asked about the perception that he is now in the league of Ranbir and Ranveer, Rajkummar told reporters, "I take it as a compliment. I'm a huge fan of both Ranbir and Ranveer, they are doing tremendously good. I'm looking forward to 'Gully Boy' and 'Brahmastra'."
"I never see competition in any art form, specially acting as you are dealing with emotions. I can't say I cry better then the other actor. You just have to grow with every film as an actor and let people decide what they want to say. I just want to grow and push myself with every film."
"He has no ego when he's working. He wants to do better every time. I've learnt a lot from him, that no matter how big a star you are, have been working for so long, every film is new, every film your first."
