Mansoor Ali Khan is amused with instantly discovering his pics going viral on-line. Reason? His resemblance to Hrithik Roshan, for whom he’s a stunt double, and the late Sushant Singh Rajput.
“Earlier once or twice too my pic had gone viral, but never at this level,” he laughs. Born in Delhi, he had moved to Mumbai seeking higher prospects. And entering into movies was the one approach ahead as a result of his uncle was an motion grasp for 25 years earlier than that.
His first movie, he tells us, was, “Wanted, starring Salman Khan. I was a stuntman in the film. Then I did Ek Tha Tiger too. But my first film with Hrithik sir as a double was Agneepath. I went on to do Kaabil, Bang Bang!, Super 30, War, and Vikram Vedha recently.”
But what in regards to the uncanny resemblance to Rajput? Did he take discover of it earlier than folks began pointing it out now? “Actually Sushant aur main 2009 mein same martial arts teacher se training lete the, he’s no more now. We would meet often in class, say a simple hello. He wasn’t doing television then. People would tell me even then ‘tum dono ek jaise dikhte ho, ek hi jaisi height, physique, personality,” he says.
What led to progress in his profession was Hrithik liking his work. “He was a big superstar, me and my family all were his fans. I am still a fan, but he is my fan now! I have been a stunt double for other actors too, but when I met Hrithik, mujhe unhone feel hi nahi karaya ki voh itne bade superstar hain. Hello bola aur gale mile, we shot normally. Then he told me ‘hum saath mein aur kaam karenge’ He didn’t say this just because I look the way I do… he is a kind person. He is caring and appreciates me,” gushes Khan.
