Sushant Singh Rajput’s death came as a major shock on the morning of June 14, 2020. The actor was found dead at his residence in Bandra, Mumbai, and the provisional post mortem report revealed that the cause of his death was asphyxia due to hanging, as confirmed by Abhishek Trimukhe, Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP), while speaking to ANI. Conversation and debates about nepotism, bullying in Bollywood started on social media, while Kangana Ranaut, Shekhar Kapur called out the film industry’s hypocrisy.
Now, in his statement to the police, Sushant’s father KK Singh has reportedly said that he did not know Sushant was depressed, but said Sushant had told him that he felt low due to the tensions in the film industry. ABP Live has reported that in Sushant’s father’s statement to the Mumbai Police, he shared, “Sushant told me two or three times in the last few months that he feels low because of the ongoing tension in the film industry.” Sushant’s dad admitted that Sushant was stressed due to the pressure from the industry, and when his dad asked him if he could come and stay with him, Sushant had told that will come out of these problems and that it would be fine soon.
As per reports, a senior Mumbai Police official also said that Sushant’s family informed that they did not know why Sushant was depressed and also didn’t mention if they had a suspicion on anyone.
Meanwhile, two days ago, Maharashtra home Minister, Anil Deshmukh had tweeted, “While the post mortem report says actor Sushant Singh Rajput committed suicide by hanging himself, there are media reports that he allegedly suffered from clinical depression because of professional rivalry. Mumbai Police will probe this angle too.” ALSO READ: Sushant Singh Rajput Demise: Ayushmann Khurrana Shares Not Being In Touch With The Late Actor For The Past One Year
