Sushant Sigh Rajput has been one such person, who grabbed all the limelight last year, for every good and odd reason.

2016 has been a year that saw Sushant's tremendous performance in 'M.S. Dhoni: The Untold Story,' which brought him much appreciation and made him the most searched celebrity on Google.

While hitting the red carpet at Jio Filmfare Awards last night, the 'Kai Po Che' actor went down his memory lane to speak about the long walk he has taken to achieve the stardom today.

"Last time I attended Filmfare awards back in 2006, as a background dancer, with Shiamak Davar. It was a great experience. It's after 11 years that I am coming back here again, and guess what, I am performing and nominated for best actor," he told Filmfare, with a sense of pride.

Now, that's what we call SUCCESS!

In a black-n-white suit, the 30-year-old actor looked hot and classy as ever.

On the work front, he will next be seen in Dinesh Vijan's 'Raabta, alongside Kriti Sanon, which is scheduled for a June release, this year.
