Sushant Singh Rajput wants to play this freedom fighter on screen!

Biopics are in vogue in Bollywood. Almost every second month we see one or two biopics arriving in cinemas with much fanfare. Some do well while others fail to thug the right chord with the audience. Actor Sushant Singh Rajput, who has done a biopic on Indian skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni, titled M.S Dhoni: The Untold Story is keen to do one more biopic. And this time, not on a cricketer but a freedom fighter.

Recently, when Sushant was asked if given the chance to star in the biopic of a freedom fighter, who would he like to play on screen, he revealed, “It has to be Subhash Chandra Bose because he had his own way of thinking. In 1939, he was almost becoming President of Congress but he could not because, as far as I know, Sitaramayya was there and they had different ideologies. I am more with the ideology that Subhash Chandra Bose had when I read now.”


The actor further adds, “Of course, I don’t know what was happening then. But right now, if I look back, I am more with his way of thinking. So I would love to play him and know why the Forward Block, the Indian National Army was formed. It’s also a very interesting character to play and understand.”

Meanwhile, Sushant Singh Rajput is currently busy preparing for Sanjay Puran Singh Chauhan’s Chanda Mama Door Ke and Abhishek Kapoor’s Kedarnath, which will mark the Hindi film debut of Sara Ali Khan.

7 Bruce Willis thrillers ranked by Rotten Tomatoes score that aren’t 'Die Hard'

Highlights

  • Bruce Willis has several critically acclaimed thrillers beyond the Die Hard franchise
  • Looper currently holds the highest Rotten Tomatoes score among these picks at 93%
  • 12 Monkeys and The Sixth Sense also rank among his strongest-reviewed films
  • The list spans sci-fi thrillers, supernatural mysteries, neo-noir and action films

Bruce Willis will always be associated with John McClane, but Die Hard is hardly the only place where the actor made his mark on the thriller genre.

Across the 1990s and 2000s, Willis moved between time-travel mysteries, supernatural dramas, neo-noirs and action thrillers, often using the same understated intensity that made him such a recognisable screen presence. Rotten Tomatoes scores show that some of his most highly regarded work came when he stepped away from the role of the conventional action hero.
