Munmun told fans that Rhea Chakraborty, Kriti Sanon and Ankita Lokhande are 'along with the family members and close friends of Sushant Singh' and might be fighting their own severe battle. Munmun asked people to stop harassing them nonstop with their toxic comments. Take a look at what Munmun Dutta wrote:

“This pandemic has affected even the most resilient ones. It has triggered some serious mental health issues, mostly, in the vulnerable ones. But I am more surprised ( or should I say not surprised) by our human behaviour on social media. The barrage of insensitive, hurtful, and vulgar comments Rhea Chakraborty, Kriti Sanon or Ankita Lokhande have received since yesterday shows how retarded our society is and how toxic people are on social media. These girls along with the family members and close friends of Sushant Singh must be fighting their own severe battle and people are adding up to it by harassing them non stop with their toxic comments. Who are these toxic people? Were u closer to Sushant than any of them ??? You knew him JUST by his work. These girls and others have shared moments with him in their lives. So Don't teach them how to grieve !!! Don't you dare accuse them of anything? Keep your moral policing to yourself. These kinds of behaviour should be made absolutely ILLEGAL and punishable by the act . People tend to forget that celebrities are humans and such toxic, vulgar, insensitive comments cause great danger to people mentally. Sushant's death is a huge blow to the entire country and it has brought forth the glaring problem of depression which is often ignored or not spoken about because of the stigma attached to it or sometimes because of sheer ignorance or insensitivity towards the disease or any other mental illness, as a matter of fact"

Many netizens also expressed similar feelings when some of the persons Munmun mentioned were present at the last rites, showing that some bonds transcend social media.
