She also thanked the trust for their work to make the world a “better, safer, happier place.” 

Sushant Singh Rajput passed away in June 2020. The actor was found dead at his residence in Bandra, Mumbai. His last appearance was in Dil Bechara, which released later that year. The film was an adaptation of John Green’s book ‘The Fault in Our Stars’, and became a huge hit among fans and critics alike. 

The actor was born on January 21, 1986. Even though the star had a brief career, his ironclad legacy is remembered by fans and colleagues alike. He was one of the few actors in Bollywood who left a huge impact despite having no prior connections to the industry. 

Beginning his career as a dancer, Sushant joined a theatre company, which kickstarted his career as an actor. He became popular after his appearance in Ekta Kapoor’s 'Pavitra Rishta', after which he transitioned to the bigger screen. 

Over the course of seven years, Sushant was part of highly acclaimed films such as 'Kai Po Che', 'Chhichhore', and 'MS Dhoni: The Untold Story'.
