Meet superstar’s son who failed as actor, gave zero hit films, left Bollywood after…, is now…, he is…
A notion that often floats among the audience is that if a child of an actor enters the Bollywood industry, they are destined to become a famous star. However, at times, the situation doesn’t remain the same. Sometimes, a superstar’s kid fails to become an actor. Today, we will talk about a star kid who failed to become a star despite his father being a legendary icon in the industry.
This actor failed to become a star. Not just that, he gave back-to-back flops, which forced him to leave the industry. If you are wondering who we are talking about, then the person in discussion is Puru Raaj Kumar, son of legendary actor Raaj Kumar.
Who is Raaj Kumar’s Son?
Puru Raaj Kumar made his grand Bollywood debut in Bal Bramhachari opposite Karisma Kapoor. The movie was expected to be a hit, but it failed at the box office. As a result, Puru didn’t have work for four years. He then landed a negative role in the film Humara Dil Aapke Paas Hai, opposite Aishwarya Rai and Anil Kapoor, which went on to become a huge success.
However, it became hard for Puru to establish himself as an actor. Some of the movies he has been a part of include Mission Kashmir, Khatron Ke Khiladi, Dushmani, LOC Kargil, Jaago, Umrao Jaan, and more.
According to a report by Box Office India, Puru Raaj Kumar gave 10 back-to-back flop films. Following this, he decided to leave the industry.
At the age of 23, Puru Raaj Kumar was arrested in a drunk driving case after he ran over eight people who were sleeping on a pavement in Mumbai. Out of these eight people, three were killed.
What Does Puru Raaj Kumar Do Now?
Puru Raaj Kumar featured in Action Jackson, which was released way back in 2014. Apart from Kumar, the movie also featured Ajay Devgn and Yami Gautam. The movie was a flop, and since then, Puru has been away from the limelight.
