Sushant Singh Rajput began hearing voices, reveals writer Suhrita Sengupta

Actor Sushant Singh Rajput, who made a successful journey from television to Bollywood, has caused a stir in Bollywood after his suicide. Everyone is shocked and disturbed by the sudden news of Sushant's suicide. Everyone from the industry and his fans are wondering why he took such drastic step.

Suhrita Sengupta, a writer and also a close friend of famous director & producer Mahesh Bhatt had met Sushant and has made some shocking revelations in an interview to a newspaper.

Writer Suhrita Sengupta said, “Sushant had come to meet Mahesh Bhatt for possible role in Sadak-2. The two hit it off instantly, Sushant was a talker. Sushant could speak on any subject in the world. He spoke on quantum physics as well as cinema.

Bhatt Saab identified the melancholy under Sushant’s constant exuberance. “He had seen it in Parveen Babi and he knew there was nothing that would be done except medication. Rhea who stuck with Sushant in spite of his rapid descent into depression tried her best to ensure that Sushant would take his medication. But he refused.”

Without medication Sushant’s depression got worse.

“During the last one year, he had cut himself completely from all outside contact. Rhea was with him until she could take it no longer. There came a time when Sushant began hearing voices. He began to feel people were trying to kill him. One day an Anurag Kashyap film was playing in Sushant’s home and he told Rhea, “I said no to an offer from Kashyap. Now he’s going to come to kill me.’ That’s when Rhea was too frightened to stay with Sushant any longer,” says Suhrita.

Rhea broke off with Sushant.“She had no choice. Bhatt Saab told her there was nothing she could do. If she stayed on she would lose her sanity too. Rhea waited for Sushant’s sister to come to Mumbai and take charge. Sushant’s sisters tried their best to support and comfort him. But he was beyond listening to anyone. He wouldn’t take his medication,” confides Suhrita.
