Three days after actor Sushant Singh Rajput’s death due to suicide at his Bandra residence on June 14, 2020 a petition was filed against the Bollywood's well known figures in a Bihar court. Now as per reports in PTI, this petition has been dismissed by the Bihar Court. The petition included names of some of the most influential people from the industry - Salman Khan, Karan Johar, and Sanjay Leela Bhansali. This petition was filed by Sudhir Kumar Ojha, a local advocate.
Petition was dismissed by the Chief Judicial Magistrate of Muzaffarpur, Mukesh Kumar, stating that the said matter is out of the court’s jurisdiction. After his petition was dismissed in conversation with the media, Sudhir said, “I will challenge the CMJ's decision before the district court. Bihar is in pain over the death of Sushant Singh Rajput. We must act to bring those, who drove a jovial young man like him to take such an extreme step, to justice.”
Many celebs from the industry after the actor’s death opened up about facing nepotism in the industry. Fearless actress Kangana Ranaut too was one of the celebs who after the actor’s death was seen slamming the 'Bollywood gangs' for not acknowledging the work of the outsiders who are far better in their craft.
Along with some Bollywood celebs, people from the late actor’s hometown, have urged the government to initiate a CBI inquiry to find out the reason behind the actor’s death, as according to them there seems to be some foul play in this case.
