Last year, Sushant had ended his life allegedly by suicide on 14 June at his apartment in Mumbai. Sushant’s death had triggered a huge controversy with his fans blaming the phenomenon of nepotism in Bollywood for his tragic death. The federal probe agency, the CBI, is currently probing his death. Sushant’s former girlfriend, Rhea Chakraborty, was arrested in connection with a drug racket case along with her brother Showik.
In his last video, captioned as ‘suicide note’, Sandeep made a plea asking for his parents to be left alone. He said that his cash can be given to his wife.
