Remember Millimeter from Aamir Khan’s 3 Idiots? Rahul Kumar looks unrecognizable 16 years later, he works as…
Some dialogues, some scenes, some songs of a film stay with generations. Rajkumar Hirani’s ‘3 Idiots’ is one of them. This 2009 release did make us ponder on the rhetorics of the education system, of ways living and more. Sometimes in jest, sometimes in earnestness, ‘All Izz Well’ did become the go to phrase when in a pickle. For some of
Bollywood buffs, it still is.
Produced by Vidhu Vinod Chopra, the film stars Aamir Khan, R. Madhavan, Sharman Joshi, Boman Irani, Kareena Kapoor in the lead roles. Despite the main cast, supporting actors, the ones which probably appear for minimal screentime often tend to leave memories of a lifetime. One such supporting character was Manmohan, aka, ‘Millimeter’ in the film. The role was essayed by Rahul Kumar.
Meet 3 Idiots’ Millimeter Rahul Kumar 16 Years Later
One dialogue that took the form of pop culture meme from 3 Idiots was ‘Pehchano ge kaise millimeter ab centimeter jo bangaya hai.” For Rahul, the dialogue personifies in the utmost sense. Its been 16 long years and Kumar is admirably unrecognizable.
In the film, Kumar was seen as this lean boy clad in sage green lose t-shirt and weary shorts. Like a teenager’s innocence, he worked menial jobs at college, helped the students in ways he could with sassy humour not leaving his side. A loyal friend, his character wasn’t particularly literate but knew what it meant to be a friend in need is a friend indeed.
Kumar is an artist; not just an actor but is a singer too. He started his career as a child artists, He played Saif Ali Khan’s son’s role in ‘Omkara’. He has also appeared in several ad films wherein he worked with Shah Rukh Khan, Amitabh Bachchan, Ranbir Kapoor, Rs. Balki and several other actors too. Kumar signed projects for serial and one of his highly acclaimed show was ‘Bandish Bandits’.
Rahul Kumar is an active social media personality and his Instagram feed gives peak into his work as an actor and singer too. Seemingly, he attends several B-town events and has built a network of his with some of the A-listers in the film industry.
