Critically acclaimed actor Rajkummar Rao on Saturday said he would create quirky and futuristic outfits if he ever donned the hat of a fashion designer.
The 'Kai Po Che!' actor was in Kolkata to participate in a fashion show as the show-stopper along with his wife Patralekha Paul.

Replying to a query, the actor said fashion design is getting its due respect in Bollywood films now.
"There is a separate big department and it is really evolving," he said.
Speaking about his love for West Bengal and Kolkata, he said, "My wife is a Bengali. This city feels like my second home."
