Bollywood star Sushant Singh Rajput, who has given memorable performances in films like ‘Kai Po Che’, ‘MS Dhoni: The untold Story’ and ‘Chichhore’, passed away on Sunday (14 June) at his Mumbai residence.
His sudden demise has come out as a shocker to the industry fraternity and his fans. Many celebrities have posted their condolences over Social media, and shared the fond memories they have with Sushant.
Actress Kangana Ranaut, speaking about Sushant’s demise to a popular media house, said
“Sushant and I had never interacted – at least I don’t remember it particularly – but we had many close friends like Sandip Ssingh and Kamal Jain. There were many people who were so close to Sushant. I pretty much knew what was going on in his life because they were very fond of him and very close to him. In fact, when this news came to me, I immediately called Kamal ji and I asked, ‘Kamal Ji, what happened, do you know anything?’”
She also recollected how producer Kamal narrated the final conversation he had with Sushant. She said “Kamal ji told me that he had spoken with Sushant last Monday and he was very disturbed. He mentioned that he had never spoken like that before. He had told Kamal Ji: Make a big film with me yaar. I've given Chhicchore, I've given a hit film but I still don't have any big films. I don't' have the work I want.’ Kamal Ji assured him to do something together once the lockdown is lifted. They were supposed to meet on Thursday, but then this happened. So, clearly, he was anxious about work and he was anxious about the way people have cornered him.”
Kangana concluded saying “Everyone knows how they ganged up to corner him, everyone has seen. I am ready to talk about it openly. If the investigations are done, I will speak about it openly because there's enough proof in the media. Everyone knows who are the ones who ganged up on him”.
