Rajpal is one of the tiniest actors (without dwarfism) to have worked in the Indian film industry. He is shorter than all his male or female co-actors. He is listed at around five feet two inches on the internet but we think that the listing could be improved a bit.
Some not so tall actors, like Arshad Warsi or Johnny Lever are still far taller than Rajpal - yes, we know, he is near perfect.
