Mumbai: Sushant Singh Rajput seems to be leaving no stone unturned to perfectly step into the shoes of the legendary cricketer Mahendra Singh Dhoni for his upcoming movie based on Dhoni.
In a clip that has gone viral on social media, Sushant is seen practicing the very popular helicopter shot which has been invented by Dhoni. The actor can be seen to be net practicing for the scene.
Watch the video here.
Earlier in June 2015, the makers went for the recee to Kharagpur. They were impressed to see the SERSA stadium where Dhoni used to practise and the railway quarters where he lived. The makers wanted to recreate the earlier stages of Dhoni’s career.
Since the film is an untold journey of Dhoni, writers worked hard to relive the moments when he, in desperation, landed in Kharagpur for a job at the age of 20. Later, he was appointed as a train ticket examiner (TTE) at Kharagpur railway station for 2 years and eventually joined the railway cricket team as a wicket keeper. Dhoni joined the Indian cricket team and debuted in ODI in 2004.
