Reacting to a news report of Uddhav Thackeray and Home Minister Anil Deshmukh shooting down the possibility of transferring the probe to CBI, Shekhar tweeted, “Can someone explain to me what is this stubbornness?” He asked if people like him were ‘fools’ to raise their voice in the case.

The Movers & Shakers star asked they were being stubborn like astrological signs, and if they had any personal losses in the case. Shekhar also stated that there could do as per desire now, but ‘no will vote them back to power.’

Later, as Bihar CM Nitish Kumar informed that his government has approved a CBI probe into the matter, Shekhar exulted that their ‘voice had been heard.’ He also stated that if things go well, the Centre will also approve a CBI probe.

Earlier in the day, Nitish Kumar had told Republic TV, "I have spoken to the DGP. From here recommendation is being given for a CBI probe. We have Sushant's family's consent.

"It will be done today itself. Proceedings will be started."

Shekhar Suman has been at the forefront of the call for ‘justice’. He had visited Patna, and met Tejaswi Yadav, seeking support for a CBI probe. The actor also met Maharashtra Governor, Bhagat Singh Koshiyari to press for the request. 

Meanwhile, the Bihar Police team, that has landed in Mumbai to probe the case registered against Rhea Chakraborty and others, on charges on abetment to Sushant's alleged suicide, among others, have faced numerous hurdles. The team is yet to receive the post-mortem report, and were also reportedly denied the case file of Salian’s death. Previously, the Mumbai Police had recorded the statements of 56 persons since Sushant’s death on June 14, but are yet to register an FIR.
