I found Dhoni mannerisms tough:Sushant Singh Rajput
For Sushant, the role of Dhoni was not tough, but he found it difficult to get his mannerisms right.\"It was not tough (to play Dhoni in film) because of the expectations of the audience. We as actors have to convince ourselves that we are the characters. I had strong visual reference of him, so it wasn’t a difficult task for me,\" Sushant told reporters in Mumbai
Actor Sushant Singh Rajput says he did not pretend to be Indian skipper MS Dhoni, but actually felt like the cricketer while playing the title role in the upcoming biopic ‘M S Dhoni: The Untold Story’.
For Sushant, the role of Dhoni was not tough, but he found it difficult to get his mannerisms right."It was not tough (to play Dhoni in film) because of the expectations of the audience. We as actors have to convince ourselves that we are the characters. I had strong visual reference of him, so it wasn’t a difficult task for me," Sushant told reporters in Mumbai.
I immersed into the film completely. When I was shooting for the film on day one, I did not pretend to be Dhoni, I was Dhoni," he said.To get into the skin of the character, the actor trained for 11 months before the shooting. Since Dhoni is known for his trademark 'helicopter' shot, Sushant worked to get it right.
"On the first day, by the end I got that helicopter shot. After the shot I realised I was in pain, I had got hairline fracture so I was on a two-week leave. Now I can do helicopter shot nicely," he said.The biopic, directed by Neeraj Pandey, hits the cinema houses on September 30.
