Rajat Aroraa, born on July 23rd, 1975, is a renowned Independent Screenwriter with an illustrious career spanning over two decades in the Indian Film and Television Industry.
As a specialist in crafting punch-packed dialogues, Aroraa has delivered numerous hit movies, including Once Upon a Time in Mumbai (2010),The Dirty Picture (2011),Kick (2014),Gabbar Is Back (2015),and Taxi No. 9211 (2006).
Throughout his versatile writing career, Aroraa has explored various genres, such as action, comedy-drama, superhero stories, romantic musicals, and biopics.
One of his most critically acclaimed works is Once Upon a Time in Mumbaai (2010),a gangster movie that gained a cult status for its powerful, motivational, and insightful dialogues, which have become street-speak for Indian audiences.
Another cultish movie is The Dirty Picture (2011),a biographical drama loosely based on the life and times of a South Indian actor. Aroraa's script for the film sparked a feminist discourse and shook the conservatives of Indian society.
The Times of India praised the film's dialogues, stating that they add immense flavor to the proceedings, and that it is a "no-holds-barred screenplay which rightly refuses to treat sex as a three-letter word."
Aroraa's subsequent works include Baadshaho (2017),a period action-thriller starring Ajay Devgn, Azhar (2016),a biographical sports drama based on the life of the most controversial Indian Cricket Captain, and Captain Marvel's (2019) Hindi dubbed version, which retained the core essence and emotions of the original.
Currently, Aroraa is working on Thalaivi, a trilingual biopic based on the life and times of J. Jayalalithaa, late politician and film actress, with Kangana Ranaut playing the lead.
Additionally, he is set to make his debut as a producer with the Hindi remake of Telugu super hit film RX 100, marking the debut of Ahan Shetty, son of veteran actor Suneil Shetty.
