Rajkummar Rao, who is on an award-
winning spree, has now added another
prestigious trophy to his shelf by bagging
Entertainer of the Year' award at the
Outlook Social Media Awards 2018
ceremony held in Delhi recently. The
powerhouse performer bagged the honour
for his stupendous performance in the
critically-acclaimed movie, Newton selected
as India's official entry to the Oscars 2018.

several critics and B-town influencers who

many more Newtons.
