Although Rakul gave plenty of interviews, most of them were centred upon her professional life. Apart from films, Rakul's personal life is hardly known to any her of fans as she hasn't touched upon this subject often. Let's take a look at the lesser known facts of the Tollywood heartthrob Rakul.
Her Name
