A Star is Born
Sushant Singh Rajput’s journey from a small-town boy to a Bollywood star is nothing short of inspiring. Born on January 21, 1986, in Patna, Bihar, Sushant moved to Mumbai to pursue a career in acting. He began his career in television, gaining fame with his role in the popular show “Pavitra Rishta.” His transition to the big screen was marked by a series of critically acclaimed performances in movies like “Kai Po Che!,” “MS Dhoni: The Untold Story,” “Kedarnath,” and “Chhichhore.”
The Tragic Demise
The news of Sushant’s death came as a shock to many. The Mumbai Police concluded the case as a suicide, citing depression and bipolar disorder. However, not everyone believed it was a simple case of suicide. Sushant’s family filed a police complaint against his girlfriend, Rhea Chakraborty, and others, alleging they abetted his suicide. This created a significant news story, with accusations of unfair treatment of outsiders in Bollywood.

The Speculations and Alleged Proofs of Murder
The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) took over, but the “murder vs. suicide” debate raged on social media. Here’s why:
- Marks on the Body: A hospital staff member, Roopkumar Shah, allegedly stated that he noticed several marks on Rajput’s body and a few on his neck. However, the final postmortem report confirmed the cause of death as asphyxia due to hanging, declaring it a “clear case of suicide.”
- Crime Scene Discrepancies: Social media buzzed with accusations of a staged crime scene and evidence tampering. The Mumbai Police firmly denied these allegations.
- Disha Salian’s Death: The suicide of Sushant’s former manager, Disha Salian, a few days prior, added fuel to the fire. Conspiracy theories about a connection between the deaths and a larger Bollywood conspiracy gained traction, despite authorities finding no evidence.
Shweta Singh Kirti, Sushant’s sister, recently contacted Prime Minister Narendra Modi to request his help in expediting the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) into her brother’s passing. Shweta shared her concerns about the investigation’s lack of progress in an emotional video message posted on social media. She emphasized the importance of finding closure for both her family and the actor’s large fan base.
