Rakul Preet on working with Allu Arjun, Amitabh Bachchan, Ajay Devgn

There is no denying the fact that Rakul Preet has come a long way in her career. She has proved her versatility time and again by delivering a wide range of performances across industries. The actress has worked with some of the biggest superstars of Indian cinema, including Amitabh Bachchan, Ajay Devgan, Allu Arjun, Suriya, Ravi Teja, and Akshay Kumar amongst others.

As much as exciting these projects appear because of the star cast, they can certainly make a young actor feel pressured. But somehow, Rakul Preet has a different take on the same. In a recent conclave that she attended, while talking about her experience working with big stars, she said “There is no pressure in working with these prolific performers from the industry. I feel that we often take this for granted, that if there is any work, there should be pressure. When there is a lot of passion, when you worked so hard to do this specifically, you stood in lines for auditions, met several people”.


She further continued “Today, when I am in that moment and if I come under pressure, then either I don’t deserve to be there or there is something wrong. Because when you have that moment, you make the most of it.

Meanwhile, on the work front, the actress has several exciting projects in the line-up, including Indian 2 with Kamal Haasan and Sidharth.

Tanmay Bhat

How Tanmay Bhat turned sketches and streams into a £56 million empire

How Tanmay Bhat became India’s richest YouTuber with a £56 million fortune and why it’s not just from making videos

Highlights:

  • Started out writing TV scripts before co-founding All India Bakchod (AIB).
  • Turned AIB’s viral fame into a full-fledged content business.
  • Rebuilt solo after AIB’s collapse with vlogs, streams, and new formats.
  • Earns through brand deals, memberships, live streams, and start-up investments.
  • Now seen as India’s richest YouTuber with an estimated £55.7 million (₹665 crore) net worth.

So, Tanmay Bhat is supposedly worth £55.7 million (₹665 crore). Let that number sit for a second. It’s ridiculous enough that he made a joke about it: “Bhai itne paise hote toh main YouTube membership nahi bech raha hota.” Fair point. If you had that kind of money, would you still be hustling on memberships?

But here’s the thing: the exact figure doesn’t tell the story. The story is about watching a company you helped build go up in flames and, instead of folding, using the wreckage to build something different and bigger. That’s the part that’s interesting. That’s the part worth picking apart.
