It was this professionalism that Abhishek admired so much in him that the two went ahead to work again in `Kedarnath` (2018). As an individual too, Rajput was different from his contemporaries and that helped him add depth to his performances. The duo had become friends over the years used to discuss things apart from movies as well.

Abhishek Kapoor gave Sushant Singh Rajput his first big break in Bollywood with Kai Po Che (2013). He was slightly sceptical about casting him at first, but he went with his gut feeling and selected him for the role. It was Sushant’s immense dedication towards his craft that left Abhishek impressed to the core. He was blown away by Sushant’s preparation and professionalism.
“He was overweight. I needed a guy to play a cricketer, someone slim with a particular body type,” says Abhishek Kapoor in an interview with a magazine about Sushant Singh Rajput. While Sushant was a huge TV star, Abhishek had no idea about his stardom. He judged and selected Sushant purely on his skills as an actor during the auditions.
