Raksha Bandhan is an extremely special Indian festival dedicated to the eternal bond shared between a brother and her sister. And as India celebrates the auspicious occasion today, we are coming across a lot many such beautiful posts on our social media timelines. However, it's not going to be the same for late Sushant Singh Rajput's family, which, unfortunately, has been left with four grieving sisters after the actor breathed his last on June 14. Sushant was the only son in the Singh family and he was a vowed child. On the occasion of Raksha Bandhan, Sushant's eldest sister Nitu Singh, whom he lovingly called 'Rani Di', has penned a heartwarming note for her dear 'Gulshan' and it's every bit emotional.
In her heart-wrenching note, Nitu Singh mourned Sushant's demise, while also cherishing their fond childhood memories of Raksha Bandhan. She wrote, "Gulshan, my child. It's my day today. It's your day today. It's our day today. Today is Rakhi. For the first time in 35 years, the prayer plate is decorated, the lamp is lit and there's teeka, sweets, rakhi for you. Only the smiling face that I performed aarti for.. is missing. The forehead to put the teeka is missing. The wrist to tie the rakhi is missing. The mouth to sweeten is missing. There is no forehead to kiss. I don't have my brother to hug."
Nitu continued, "Years ago when you arrived, my life sparkled with joy. when you were here, there was brightness everywhere. You're not here now and I don't understand what to do. I don't know how to live without you. I didn't think that this would happen one day.. that a day will come when you won't be around. I learnt so many things with you. How do I learn to live alone without you? Tell me. Yours forever, Rani Di."

Sobbing, aren't you?
