He told a leading news agency, "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 was a difficult task for me.''

"But when the film is about to release, I think about how people will respond. Before that, I am a selfish actor and I look for excitement,'' he said.

Talking about his injury, Sushant Singh Rajput said, ''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 two-week leave. Now, I can do helicopter shot nicely.''
