On the occasion of Sushant Singh Rajput's birthday,
actor Saanand Verma fondly reminisced about his experience working with
the late actor on the film Chhichhore. Sushant, who would have turned 39
this year, continues to be remembered for his infectious charm,
dedication to his craft, and warm-hearted nature.
Saanand, who shared screen space with Sushant in the critically
acclaimed 2019 film, spoke about the actor's unique traits and his love
for music. “He was a great guy and used to sing old film songs while
shooting, especially classics by Mohammad Rafi and Kishore Kumar. He was
a fun-loving person, always in a jolly mood, cracking jokes, and
spreading positivity on set,” Verma shared.
What
stood out most for Saanand was Sushant’s meticulous approach to his
work. “His dedication was remarkable. He paid a lot of attention to
continuity, ensuring the energy of the scenes was consistent. He had a
habit of rehearsing two lines before his actual dialogue started, even
during the pre-roll, to make sure everything flowed seamlessly. His
focus on detail was incredible,” he said.
Saanand also recalled how Sushant’s appreciation for his co-actors
motivated everyone on set. “He was happy with my work and always made
sure to acknowledge it. His words of encouragement meant a lot to me,”
he added.
Sushant Singh Rajput’s untimely demise in June 2020 left the film
industry and his fans in shock, but his legacy lives on through his
memorable performances in films like Kai Po Che, MS Dhoni: The Untold
Story, and Chhichhore.
As fans and colleagues pay tribute to the late actor on his birth
anniversary, Verma’s heartfelt recollections serve as a reminder of
Sushant’s vibrant personality and unwavering commitment to his craft.
His presence, both on and off-screen, continues to inspire millions.
