Earlier, in a conversation with IANS during the promotions of ‘Delhi Crime’, the actor had shared that he wants to explore something out of the scope of the goody good characters that he often plays.
Apart from his character in another massively hit show ‘Mirzapur’, which has grey shades, the actor nails the white characters with absolute finesse.
Talking about such characters, he earlier told IANS, “Now I am a little bored, that is why I am doing something different. I have done comedy and I am doing a negative character as well, but yes, but many times I feel that doing a positive character is more difficult, because it is more difficult to keep an interest in the character”.
In the show, Rajesh portrays the role of Inspector Bhupendra Singh. ‘Delhi Crime’ stars Shefali as Vartika Chaturvedi, a sharp police officer as she leads her team through intense investigations under immense public and political pressure.
