The film industry lost three popular actors of the film industry in the last three months. After the deaths of Irrfan Khan and Rishi Kapoor on consecutive days, the demise of Sushant Singh Rajput came as a shock for viewers of Indian cinema. The veterans passed away due to medical conditions, but the youngster’s death due to suicide has led to intense outrage among a section of the netizens, who are blaming nepotism and favouritism over Sushant being deprived of opportunities.

Babil Khan, Son of Irrfan Khan, had a strong response to those trying to ‘investigate’ the death of Sushant Singh Rajput, and called it a ‘futile act.’ Babil, sharing a photo of both his father and Sushant, wrote that the deaths of the two ‘sincere people’ were not still not ‘settling in.’  He termed the manner of Sushant’s death as an ‘unbelievable shock.’ Babil shared how playing the ‘blame game’ and trying to ‘find peace’  was not  ‘honest peace’ but only a ‘fleeting reflection of a lie.’

He urged all not to blame someone or something for it as it brought  more ‘despair’ to those trying to cope with the loss. He urged that instead of the blame game, one should celebrate the ‘evolution of the sincere men’, to let their  ‘wisdom manifest in our lives in some ways’, and let their ‘little lanterns of their memories’ remain ‘ignited in our souls.’ He stated that one should stand up for what they feel is right and not use Sushant’s death as an ‘excuse’ to do so.

Babil also wrote that it will be a fight for him to prove that he deserved a shot.

It’s still not settling in. We’ve lost two very sincere people and sincerity is key in our spiritual journey, thus it comes as an unbelievable shock, the way Sushant has departed. Naturally, we have descended into pinning the blame on something or someone, which in itself is the most futile act because to find peace by playing the blame game is not honest peace, it is a fleeting reflection of a lie. I urge you to not blame someone or something for this incredibly unfortunate happening, I urge you to accept that life is filled with leg spin deliveries bouncing off spin with no apparent explanation or understanding provided, I urge you to stop investigating the reason because it only brings more despair to the people intimately suffering the loss. Instead we must celebrate the evolution of these sincere men and let their wisdom manifest in our own journeys in some way, hoping to keep little lanterns of their memories ignited in our sensitive souls. I’m saying stand up for what’s right without using Sushant’s demise as an excuse, if you want to rebel against nepotism, do so, but don’t use Sushant as a reason to why you’re doing so now. Stand up for what’s right regardless anyway in any case. (And it would and should be my fight to prove to the audience that I deserve a shot.)
