I Don't Work For Awards: Sushant Singh Rajput

IANS, 18 Apr, 2017 12:02 PM
    Actor Sushant Singh Rajput, who was appreciated for his role in biopic "M.S. Dhoni: The Untold Story", says that he doesn't work for awards.
     
    On being asked if he has any disappointments for not winning an award for the film, he said: "If somebody gives you validation about your work then obviously it feels good but I don't look forward for any awards."
     
    "My job is done once the last day of shoot ends. I am a very selfish actor. I am just concerned about kind of experience I have while shooting the film. I just don't care about box office numbers.
     
    "Just being on the film set and shooting for the film is the most important thing for me," said Sushant on the sidelines of IIFA voting weekend 2017 on Saturday.
     
    Sushant is gearing up for his forthcoming film "Raabta" that also stars Kriti Sanon.
     
    When asked if he faces any difficulties while shooting action scenes for the film he replied: "Why would there be any difficulties? I am doing work and discovering myself from the last 18 years so I have no complaints whatsoever."
     
    "Raabta" is directed by Dinesh Vijan and will release on June 9.
