Rajkumar Hirani, one of the most popular filmmakers of the Bollywood industry, celebrated his birthday on November 20. He is the master of making films on socially relevant subjects with a pinch of humour. Ever since he made his directorial debut with Munnabhai MBBS in 2003, there has been no looking back for the director. He has given many hit films that made him earn several accolades and national awards. He has won many Filmfare awards, as well.
All of the films of Rajkumar Hirani have been commercial and critical successes.
Rajkumar Hirani is the founder of production house Rajkumar Hirani Films and Suraj production house.
Hirani started his career in the advertisement industry and he did quite well as a copywriter. However, he always wanted to get into the profession of filmmaking. Soon, the director took a break from the world of advertisement, and focused on cinema. He joined director Vidhu Vinod Chopra and took up the work of promo and trailer edits. Finally, in 2000, he got his first break as a film editor with Mission Kashmir.
The films of talented director Hirani have a special formula of taking audience into a roller coaster ride of bone tickling humour, combined with heart touching issues which largely remain unaddressed.
