Sushant is exceptional, he has totally imitated me the way I talk, the way I walk, he has copied everything, that’s the beauty of it. When we talk about cricket specifically, he has practised for nine months, for two to two-and-a-half hours everyday, in fact now he can even participate as a cricketer, in between where there is off season for movies, he can go and play a lot of leagues.
