Shekhar Suman is one of those who are keeping a keen eye on Sushant Singh Rajput's death case. After his death on June 14, the primary reports stated that he died by suicide. Since then, actor Kangana Ranaut and Shekha Suman have repeatedly talked about nepotism in Bollywood and its effect on the growth of the outsider artists.
Sushant Singh Rajput's death
Sushant Singh Rajput, aged 34, was found hanging in his Mumbai's Bandra residence, on June 14. His postmortem report said that he died due to asphyxia, and ruled out any foul play. However, political leaders and his fans have staged protests and demanded an inquiry, BJP's Roopa Ganguly and Subramanian Swamy being some of them.
Meanwhile, Mumbai Police has launched a probe in the death of the actor and has recorded the statements of several Bollywood celebrities including the late actor's rumoured girlfriend Rhea Chakraborty, filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali, actors like Mahesh Shetty and talent manager Reshma Shetty.
On the work front, Sushant's last movie Dil Bechara will be released on an OTT platform on July 24. It is an Indian adaptation of Hollywood movie The Fault In Our Stars that is based on a book of the same name. The Mukesh Chhabra directorial, whose trailer and title track released earlier this month, will also star Saif Ali Khan in a prominent role.
