Mumbai: Noted Bollywood actor and television star Sushant Singh Rajput reportedly committed suicide on Sunday. As per the preliminary investigation, he was found hanging at his Bandra residence. His demise came as a shock to many as this is the fourth death of a famous personality from the Hindi film industry to pass away in the past two months, after Irrfan Khan and Rishi Kapoor succumbed to cancer and Wajid Khan from the Sajid-Wajid duo fell prey to the coronavirus pandemic. Rajput's domestic help had informed the police after spotting the actor hanging from the ceiling. A forensic team is collecting items from his room and the post-mortem would be conducted in Cooper and Bhabha Hospital. Deputy Commissioner of Police is at the spot. "It pains us to share that Sushant Singh Rajput is no longer with us. We request his fans to keep him in their thoughts and celebrate his life, and his work as they have done so far. We request media to help us maintain privacy at this moment of grief," Rajput's publicist said in a statement. Condolences poured in from all quarters for the highly-talented actor who won several awards for his roles in movies like M.S. Dhoni: The Untold Story, PK and Kedarnath. “I can’t believe this at all... it’s shocking... a beautiful actor and a good friend... it’s disheartening #RestInPeace my friend #SushantSinghRajput. Strength to the family and friends,” actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui said. “We are shocked and deeply saddened by the tragic passing away of young Bollywood actor, a soul brimming with promise and possibilities #SushantSinghRajput. Our condolences to his family, loved ones and all those who admired his work. Gone too soon,” Youth Congress said on social media platform Twitter Sushant Singh Rajput's suicide brings back his longstanding fight with mental health The tragic death of Bollywood star Sushant Singh Rajput sent shockwaves down the world. According to the police, the Kedarnath actor, 34, had committed suicide as he was found hanging from the ceiling in his Bandra residence. Sushant’s death has sparked a much-needed discussion on mental health, something that he too had raised his voice for in the past, numerous times. His suicide has now brought back his previous conversations on the issue of mental health, specifically the time when he had spoken out against the idea that actors have less trouble maintaining their mental health. Talking to Hindustan Times back in 2017, Sushant had said: “Who says actors are maintaining their mental health? That’s a wrong belief.” “The most important thing that an actor could do to protect himself from all these things (pressures, demands, paparazzi culture, etc.) is just to know why a person is doing what he is doing.” “No matter what you do, and what you like, be it money, fame or competition — just make sure you know your reasons,” he had said. His film Chhichhore too, was known to have carried a social message on mental instability, anxiety and stress in today’s youth. |
