Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao are all set to entertain their fans with their much-awaited film Stree 2, which is releasing on Thursday. While the actors are busy promoting the film on various platforms, the stars of the film opened up about their respective first salaries. Revealing her story, Shraddha confessed she used up all her first salary on food, whereas Rajkummar Rao shared an emotional story where he revealed he bought desi ghee with his first salary.
On the latest episode of Aapka Apna Zakir, Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao were asked about their first salaries. Shraddha Kapoor, who was quick to reply, said, “My parents sent me to America with lots of love. But, because they wanted to keep me grounded, they kept me on a budget with very limited pocket money. However, they said if I wanted more money, I could earn it myself. My dad asked me to get a job there, so I applied for it at a coffee shop. I bagged the job. My first cheque was $40 dollars.” She then guiltily said, “I spent it on food.”
When the same question was posed to Rajkummar Rao, the actor shared a very emotional story. He said, “I was in high school when I used to go teach dance to a 7-year-old girl at her house. I used to get Rs 300 for training her. The first time when I received my first salary, I think it was six notes of Rs 50. I was so happy because the financial situation at my house was not good in those days.”
