Sushant Singh Rajput to step in Great Khali’s shoes!
Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput has a lot of movies lined up. He is presently shooting for Abhishek Kapoor’s Kedarnath opposite Sara Ali Khan in the holy place itself. Post that, he will resume the preparation and shoot for Chanda Mama Door Ke, where he will be seen essaying the role of an astronaut.
As per a famous tabloid, Sushant has bagged another movie which is a biopic based on the popular wrestler The Great Khali. Speaking about it, a source revealed to the tabloid, “The biopic is on the life of wrestler Dalip Singh Rana, better known as Khali or The Great Khali in WWE circle. The studio has spoken to the Punjabi wrestler and he has given them the rights to make a film on his life. Sushant has been approached to play the titular role and he has in principle agreed to do the film.”
The source further revealed, “People only know about the sporty side of this Indian-born American semi-retired professional wrestler, promoter and actor. But there’s an untold story behind his super success. He was an officer for the Punjab state police and struggled for years before making it big in wrestling. The story will be about his journey.”
It will be exciting to see how the makers of the film make Sushant look convincing as Khali because the wrestler’s physique is poles apart from the actor. Khali has a height of seven feet one inch and he weighs about 157 kilos.
