During an appearance on screenwriter-lyricist Niranjan Iyengar's talk show "Look Who's Talking with Niranjan - Season 2`, Sushant was asked about how an engineering student like him landed up in a dance class.
To that, he said: `You will be shocked to hear the story. I used to sell peanuts along with my friends, to hunt for hot girls and then someone suggested that dance classes have many hot girls.
`Hence, I joined Shiamak Davar's dance class and danced behind all the big stars and in all big award events. And then I knew that someday I will be in the front.`
Sushant said that it is Shiamak `who gave me the confidence to be an actor.`
`He used to tell me that though I am not one of his finest dancers but still he keeps me in the front row because I have the charm to address the audience,` he added.
Sushant, who has starred in films like `Kai Po Che`, `Shuddh Desi Romance` and `PK`, will next be seen playing Indian cricketer Mahendra Singh Dhoni in his upcoming biopic `M. S. Dhoni: The Untold Story`.
The episode of `Look Who's Talking with Niranjan - Season 2`, featuring Sushant, will be aired on Sunday on Zee Cafe.
