During the sessions, Dhoni was bombarded with many questions by Sushant.

‘You Ask A Lot Of Questions’

In a shared video from the movie’s press conference, Sushant stated, “For the first time, I saw Dhoni lose his temper. For the first two or three days I asked him questions and he answered them calmly. Then he said you ask a lot of questions let me come back. I was just asking him one question in different ways again and again.”

Doni joined in and added. “He (Sushant) used to ask the same question over and over again and when he got the same answer he then believed I was honest and went to the next question.”
