Ms. Sanon, who played with the actor in the film Raabta, was among the handful of fraternity members of the film to attend Mr. Rajput’s funeral on Monday. Kriti Sanon followed a trend for two days directly on Twitter, first because she did not rush to share on social media after the death of the actor and then because she was at the funeral. Sushant Singh Rajput died by suicide, police say; An investigation is underway.
Kriti Sanon’s message will break your heart. She wrote, “Sush, I knew your bright mind was your best friend and your worst enemy, but it shattered me completely to know that you had a time in your life when dying seemed easier or better than to live. I wish so much that you did the people around you to make you spend this moment, I wish you had not rejected those who loved you … I wish I could fix this something that was broken in you … I couldn’t … I wish for so many things. “
She added, “Part of my heart has gone with you … And part will always keep you alive. I have never stopped praying for your happiness and I never will.”

The death of Sushant Singh Rajput sparked a violent backlash against Bollywood with a series of tweets focusing on director Karan Johar, on whom public anger over Bollywood brokerage camps has become concentrated. Several members of the film fraternity, such as Raveena Tandon, Ranvir Shorey, Nikhil Dwivedi, Shekhar Kapur and Anubhav Sinha, called their colleagues for “hypocrisy”, “double sided” and operating in camps.
Politician Sanjay Nirupam, who was also present at the funeral of Sushant Singh Rajput, alleged that actor signed seven films after 2019 release Chhichhore but lost the seven in six months. The inquest into the actor’s death will also probe allegations that he was depressed due to professional rivalries, Maharashtra’s interior minister Anil Deshmukh said.
