Rajkummar believes stardom comes with a pressure because everyone starts judging you on your box-office performance.
"But for me, it has always has been very pure. It still is very pure. I want my films to do well but I don't have any number in my mind or my film should match this number or this weekend," said the actor.
He is happy as long as he is proud of his work.
"As long as I am very proud of what I am doing and what I have done, I am in a very happy state of mind and want to keep that honesty intact in me," he added.
With a career spanning over eight years, Rajkummar says everything has been a learning experience for him.
"There would be times that my films would not be that great. Every film cannot be a Shahid, Newton or Bareilly Ki Barfi. I try and bring in and keep my honesty intact in all my characters because that's the only thing I can control and the only thing in my hand.
"Apart from that, there are no regrets. If I have made a mistake I have learnt from it," he said.
After Stree, Rajkummar is looking forward to a great slate of work with Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga, Mental Hai Kya and Imli. He will also be seen in Love Sonia.
Not divulging much about the films, Rajkummar said, "Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga' is very exciting. As the tagline says it 'siyaape waali love story'. So, there is a lot of quirk to it."
