The
tragic
death
by
suicide
of
Sushant
Singh
Rajput,
has
brought
into
light,
the
debate
on
nepotism
and
lack
of
good
opportunities
for
talented
people.
Many
are
accusing
those
who
hold
privilege
within
the
industry,
as
creating
a
stifling
atmosphere
for
skilled
artists
to
shine.
Jitendra
Kumar,
who
made
his
big
Bollywood
debut
with
the
film
Shubh
Mangal
Zyada
Saavdhan
this
year,
is
cautious
about
putting
the
blame
on
the
film
industry.
Talking
about
Sushant's
death,
Jitendra
told
Hindustan
Times,
"First
of
all,
it's
sad
and
shocking.
It's
not
about
the
film
industry,
this
is
a
problem
everywhere.
I
feel
the
film
industry
is
more
visible
and
exposed,
so
it's
more
out
there.
But,
the
problem
is
there
in
every
industry."
Talking
about
people
taking
their
own
lives,
Jitendra
said
that
it
is
very
sad
when
it
happens,
and
that
it
can
be
avoided
by
simply
talking
about
it
with
others.
He
continued,
"It's
alarming.
As
an
industry,
we
should
take
care
of
each
other,
look
out
for
one
another.
If,
in
any
case,
we
feel
that
something
is
off,
we
must
share
it.
It's
all
about
connection
and
connectivity.
We
do
neglect
a
lot
of
things
in
general
-
we
don't
talk
to
family,
friends
or
siblings.
We
must
reach
out."
Like
many
other
celebrities
who
are
underlining
the
importance
of
mental
health,
Jitendra
also
said,
"First
comes
health,
both
physical
and
mental.
It's
important
to
involve
people
in
your
life
and
keep
yourself
happy.
Help
people
and
help
yourself."
Sushant
ended
his
life
on
June
14,
2020.
He
was
found
hanging
in
his
Mumbai
apartment.
