Patralekhaa On Her & Rajkummar Rao’s Vacations

When asked who is the one who plans vacations between her and Rajkummar Rao, Patralekhaa said, “I like making plans. I’m the one who handles holiday planning and dinner reservations—100%!” She continued, “Raj loves doing all of that too, but he can’t really plan because he doesn’t have the time. So I’m like, ‘Okay, let me plan a holiday for you.’ Then he tells me, ‘Let’s go… let’s go to Japan.’ I said, ‘Cool, we’ll go to Japan.’ But beyond that, he had no clue. I asked, ‘Okay, Japan sounds good, but what do we actually do there?’ He said, ‘You figure it out when we get there.'”

She added, “There have been times we’ve gone on trips, like this European tour we did—just the two of us—and we didn’t book any hotels. Nothing! We were literally on a train trying to book rooms, and we weren’t getting anything because it was peak winter vacation time. Eventually, we found a guesthouse somewhere totally off the map. So yeah, it’s been fun, actually kind of crazy at times.”

The actress admits they are a middle-class family. She said, “Honestly, I’ll tell you—at heart, we are both very, very middle-class people. And I don’t even think Raj realises who he is—that’s just the way we live our lives. Raj throws my toothpaste away randomly, and I still call up my bhaajiwala and say, ‘Bhaiya 10 rupay kam kardo.’ My mom still comes to our place and do chik chik, yeh mat karo, be grateful, be thankful.”
