With Sushant Singh Rajput's death case witnessing a new twist with every passing day, filmmaker Ashoke Pandit took to his Twitter handle to share how 'Dil Bechara' actor's mysterious death reminds him of 'Heer Ranjha' actor Priya Rajvansh's death. Why you may wonder? It is because Priya Rajvansh's death was earlier written off as suicide and later it was established that she had been killed by Chetan Anand’s children and two other accomplices over a property dispute.

Priya Rajvansh, a close friend of filmmaker Chetan Anand, was found dead in the bungalow on March 27, 2000. Rajvansh is best known for her work in 'Heer Ranjha’ and ‘Hanste Zakhm’.

In an exclusive interview with Republic TV's Editor-in-Chief Arnab Goswami, Ankita Lokhande, revealed how she and Sushant had been through worse situations in life, and that ruling his death as suicide did not sit right with her. 

"I want to tell everyone. Sushant is not the kind of guy who would be in depression. I and Sushant have faced worse situations in life. I don't know what position he was in, but after a certain time, I tried to understand how you can just pass off his death as a suicide in just 15 minutes? As far as I know Sushant, he is not a depressed guy," she said.

Bihar Police furthers probe into FIR

Bihar Police has sent a 4-member team to Mumbai to further investigate the late actor's death case, after Sushant Singh Rajput's father filed an FIR against the late actor’s girlfriend Rhea Chakraborty and 5 others.
