Actor Sushant Singh Rajput says the upcoming biopic on Mahendra Singh Dhoni is not just a depiction of the cricketer’s life story but also an inspiring tale of hardwork and success.
The 30-year-old actor, who essays the role of the cricket star in MS Dhoni : The Untold Story, said Dhoni’s life story is about believing in your dream.
“We are punctuating the belief Dhoni had in himself. There was not even an iota of doubt that if this thing doesn’t happen, then there is a plan B. One should not dream or work to achieve something to get a high status in society.
“You work for your dream because that’s the only thing that drives you. That’s the only thing that keeps you awake for that extra five minutes and wakes you up five minutes early in the morning,” Sushant said during a session at an event.
The actor said through the film they are not glorifying the Indian cricketer and have shown all the important instances of his life exactly the way they happened.
“We are not trying to glorify Dhoni. We are not over-glamourising anything. Right from his birth to the 2011 World cup six that he hit, we are showing everything,” Sushant said.
MS Dhoni: The Untold Story will hit the theatres on September 30. The film also stars Anupam Kher, Kiara Advani and Disha Patani.
