Raj Kundra on dealing with rumours: 'They're way more interesting than my actual life'
Mumbai, Aug 2
Businessman and actor Raj Kundra has opened up about his approach towards the rumours and speculations surrounding him.
Sharing his thoughts on how he deals with gossip, he revealed that he often chooses not to deny every rumour because some of them are more entertaining than his actual life. Sharing a video of him, he wrote, "When I hear rumors about me, I don't deny them because they're way more interesting than my actual life!! #rumours #drama #life." In the clip, Raj Kundra can be seen dressed in a white T-shirt paired with blue jeans and a white turban. The video also captures him making hilarious facial expressions.
Raj Kundra has been associated with several controversies over the years, including reports surrounding alleged financial issues and legal matters.
Meanwhile, Raj Kundra is currently busy promoting his upcoming film, 'The Great Punjab Robbery.' Directed and written by Saurabh Varma, the film promises to deliver a unique cinematic experience, unlike anything previously seen in Punjabi cinema. The action-packed entertainer features a powerful ensemble cast, including Payal Rajput, Garvita Sadhwani, Mahabir Bhullar, Paramveer Singh, Ankit Sagar, Amit Behl, and Kulvir Sony.
'The Great Punjab Robbery' is all set to release in theatres worldwide on 7th August 2026.
Raj Kundra made his acting debut with Mehar in 2025. He shared screen space with Geeta Basra and Savita Bhatti. Directed by Rakesh Mehta, the film followed the journey of Karamjit, a farmer from rural Punjab who seeks redemption while trying to reunite with his family.
He was also part of the reality show "The Traitors," an Indian adaptation of the Dutch series De Verraders, which was hosted by Karan Johar. Based on the format of the original show, the series featured a group of contestants competing in a strategic game similar to Mafia or Werewolf. A select group of participants, known as the "Traitors," secretly worked to eliminate the "Innocents," while the remaining contestants had to identify and vote out the Traitors to win the game.

Raj Kundra in a white turban looks so different! I have to admit, he's got a good sense of humor about all the drama. But I still wonder how his family handles all this speculation. It can't be easy for them.
Classic Bollywood comeback! "Rumours are more interesting than my life" - that's a smart way to handle the paparazzi culture. Though with all the legal troubles he's had, I hope he's genuinely okay. Sometimes humor is a coping mechanism.
I actually find this kind of attitude quite wise. In India, our gossip culture is next level, so if you can't beat them, join them! But I do hope his upcoming film 'The Great Punjab Robbery' is good. We need more quality Punjabi cinema.
This is a refreshing change from the typical celebrity PR responses. Most people get lawyers involved, but he's just making memes out of it. I respect the self-awareness. Also, good luck with the film release next year!
Main samajh sakti hoon ki rumours irritating hote hain, but this is a very graceful way to handle it. Though I feel bad for his family who have to deal with the constant media scrutiny. Anyway, best of luck for his new film!
