Sushant Singh Rajput Death: MNS appeals artists to contact party if they face nepotism

Actor Sushant Singh Rajput's demise has sparked the nepotism debate in Bollywood once again. He was found hanging at his residence on June 14. He was 34. Reportedly, he was battling depression. According to many unconfirmed reports, he had been thrown out of several big projects over the past few months despite his last year's release "Chhichhore" being a huge hit.

Now after his demise, Raj Thackeray-led Maharashtra Navnirman Sena has jumped into the nepotism debate. The party has appealed artists to contact them if they face nepotism in the line of the work. The party promises to help artists who are hit by nepotism.

MNS's Maharashtra vice-president Vageesh Saraswat appealed such artists to come forward and approach the party.

"Mumbai Police is investigating in the right direction. The police should question everyone on nepotism. It can be Bhansali or anyone else," he said

"If anyone is being harrassed in the film industry, if any gang is not letting an artist work, the artist should approach MNS. Raj Thackeray's party will teach anyone practicing nepotism a tough lesson," he added.
