Hrithik Roshan’s stunt double reveals he learnt martial arts with Sushant Singh Rajput in the same class – Times of India

Hrithik Roshan’s Vikram Vedha stunt double Mansoor Ali Khan became a viral sensation as fans found an uncanny resemblance with late actor Sushant Singh Rajput. The stuntman is rather amused at the response to his picture and in a recent interaction, he revealed that he has in fact trained with SSR over a decade ago.
Mansoor revealed to HT that he would train with Sushant in 2009 under the guidance of same martial arts teacher. He said that they would often meet and exchange a hello. Back then Sushant hadn’t entered the TV industry, but people would still recognise and point out the physical similarities between them.

Mansoor who was born in Delhi moved to Mumbai in search of job prospects. He said he got into films as his uncle was an action master for 25 years. Mansoor revealed his first Bollywood film was Salman Khan’s Wanted. He also did the stunts in Ek Tha Tiger, Agneepath, Kaabil, Bang Bang! Super 30, War, and most recently Vikram Vedha.
Mansoor credits his progress in the industry to Hrithik. He said that though Hrithik is a big superstar, he never made him feel so. Recalling his meeting with the star, Mansoor said he greeted and hugged him and said ‘hum saath mein aur kaam karenge’.

Days after Mansoor shared his picture with Hrithik on Instagram to wish him on his birthday, netizens suddenly woke up to the fact that he looks a lot like late SSR. Taking to the comments section, a fan wrote, “He looks like Sushant Singh Rajput,” while another one said, “The other guy looks like Sushant”. Another user added, “Who is that one who exactly looks like Sushant?”.
