Shuddh Desi Romance [caption id=“attachment_3890047” align=“alignnone” width=“825”]  Sushant Singh Rajput and Vaani Kapoor in a still from the film | Twitter[/caption] Set in the Pink City of Jaipur, Shuddh Desi Romance was a quintessential rom-com touching upon the subjects of commitment phobia, insecurity associated with love, and the perennially confused generation of today. Raghu (Rajput) is a layabout, and while somedays a tourist guide in Jaipur. However, very soon begins the circuitous love triangle between Gayatri, played by Parineeti, Raghu and Tara (Vaani Kapoor). The film was refreshing and urban take on love, marriage, heartbreaks, relationships for the year it was set in. MS Dhoni: The Untold Story

Rajput did a remarkable job of breaking down and reassembling the visible aspects of India’s former cricket captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni, right from his confident walk, polite mannerisms to the near-accurate depiction of Dhoni’s batting style, especially the popular helicopter shot.

_Sonchiriya_ was an immersive dacoit drama set in the harsh, dusty ravines of Chambal in the 1970s. In an all-star cast, Rajput’s Lakhna stood his ground for with his compelling performance. His character exuded anguish and determination, in equal proportions, and was often regarded as the conscience-keeper of his group of bandits. * A collection of Suicide prevention helpline numbers
