Though not exactly a reaction to the approval of the CBI probe, Anupam Kher and Zareen Khan also backed the call for ‘justice’ for Sushant. Kher wrote that the family deserved to know the truth, and hoped for a ‘logical conclusion’ to the case. Zareen wrote that the ‘truth shall prevail’ and that the actor was watching from above.
Sushant’s family & fans deserves to know the truth. So much has been said, there are so many conspiracy theories, but it is not about who stands on which side anymore, it is about ensuring, that this case reaches a logical conclusion. We must know the truth.🙏#JusticeforSushant pic.twitter.com/leL6ItKFuu

Nitish Kumar’s statement to 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."
A four-member team of the Bihar Police is investigating the FIR, on the complaint of KK Singh, where he accused Rhea Chakraborty and six others of abetting alleged suicide of Sushant Singh Rajput, apart from charges like cheating and conspiracy. The CM also stated that the Bihar Police was not treated well by their counterparts in Mumbai.
The Mumbai Police had recorded the statements of 56 persons in connection with the case, though it has not filed a FIR yet.
