This is the third biopic Sushant has bagged. Apart from MS Dhoni, he has also signed on to do a film on Paralympic gold medalist Murlikant Petkar. It remains to be seen how makers will make SSR fit into Khali’s frame of —seven ft one inch and weighing 157 kilos. A trade analyst told the daily, “What worked in Sushant’s favor
during Dhoni was that he looked, walked and talked like MSD. Here, Sushant has no similarities with Khali when it comes to his body prototype and his height. Unless there’s a lot of VFX involved, it’s difficult to pull off a film on Khali. No hero in Bollywood will look convincing as The Great Khali unless there’s CGI.”
Well, it will surely be a challenge to play Khali and we are looking forward to this one. It will be exciting to see Sushant playing the told of Khali, what do you think about his character? Let us know in the comments
