Actor Rajkummar Rao has learnt the craft of tailoring to prepare himself for his role in the upcoming film Stree. The Newton star underwent a month long training to master the skill and he learnt stitching a variety of clothing, from a blouse to a shirt.

"Once you sit on that chair, the coordination and reflexes are something else. You can cheat with a body double but I wanted to do everything and bought myself a sewing machine and hired a tailor in Mumbai to teach me how to sew. I also had a tailor guiding me on the sets in Chanderi," Rao said in a statement.
