Earlier, the Teri Mitti lyricist shared a picture of Sushant Singh Rajput along with a thought-provoking post. The lyricist took a jibe on the remarks that revolved around the death of the actor including his mental illness. While sharing the post, Manoj compared the death of the actor with the person’s feelings and voices which he feels can only be heard when a person gives up on his life.  

Ever since the untimely demise of actor Sushant Singh Rajput who was found hanging in his Bandra apartment, the netizens have been blaming the alleged nepotism and ‘treatment of outsiders’ in the industry for his death. The actor was disheartened with biased favouritism in Bollywood, as per some of his fans. Several fans resorted to commenting on Bollywood star kids' social media, alleging them of nepotism. Due to this, celebs like Alia Bhatt, Kareena Kapoor Khan, and Ananya Panday closed or limited their comments section.

Sushant Singh Rajput’s death has angered many fans who took to social media accounts of several celebs. The comments sections of these celebs were full of hate for being from a powerful background. Sushant, on the other hand, had made his career all the way from the bottom. He first starred in television serials, unlike Alia, who started her career with a lead role in Student of the Year, or Ananya who started as a lead in part of SOTY 2.
