Sushant Singh Rajput trained for advance weapon and gymnastics in Bangkok for Raabta

Sushant Singh Rajput, who will be seen fighting with a sword in his upcoming film 'Raabta' which is set in two different eras, has undergone rigorous physical training for his role in the film. The actor went through three weeks of advanced weapons and gymnastics training in Thailand.

Talking about this, a source said, according to Hindustan Times, “In a flashback sequence in the movie, Sushant plays a character known for his fighting skills. Dinoo (Dinesh Vijan; director) wanted the introduction sequence to have complex choreography justifying the reputation of the character. That’s why Sushant decided to go for the training”.

The scene was shot after it had rained in the area quite heavily and the shoot was close to being cancelled. Singh Rajput also confirmed, “Yes, we went ahead with the shoot, maybe because we were confident of my preparation (smiles). In fact, we finished before the stipulated time. That is one of the most interesting sequences of the film”.

‘Raabta’ also stars Kriti Sanon. It’s set for release next month.
