Sushant Singh looks the perfect dacoit in Abhishek Chaubey's Son Chiriya

Sushant Singh Rajput has picked up multi-tasking as a serious skill. A couple of months after practicing space travel for Chanda Mama Door Ke, the actor has now put up a picture from the sets of Abhishek Chaubey's upcoming drama set in the Chambal valley. While doing so, the actor might also have hinted at the title of the project, Son Chiriya. 

Posting the picture on his Twitter account, Rajput wrote, "SONCHIRIYA सोन चिरैया #AbhishekChaubey @RSVPMovies @RonnieScrewvala @honeytrehan @psbhumi @BajpayeeManoj @RanvirShorey @ashutoshrana10."

The film reportedly stars Rajput, alongside Bhumi Pednekar, Manoj Bajpayee, Ranvir Shorey and Ashutosh Rana. Produced by Ronnie Screwvala's RSVP productions, and Chaubey and Honey Trehan's Macguffin Pictures, the film is set in the 1970s era. The story reportedly revolves around the life and times of bandits who ruled the valley. 

The actor, who has already shown his ability to transform into a character with M.S. Dhoni: The Untold Story (2016), seems to have captured the look of the dacoit. Dressed in dirty, soiled khaki fatigues with a double barrelled gun beside him, the actor looks the part. The gruff beard and moustache on his face, and the unkempt hair also add to his makeover as a dacoit. 

The film is currently being shot, and is expected to be released later this year.
