On Monday, Anupama Chopra took to Twitter to honour the late actor and ask fans to keep morn the actor's demise in peace. She wrote, "Rajput chose to pass away quietly. The least we can do is hush our bickering and curiosity, while mourning with a quiet that matches his - @shreevatsa_n requesting grace in a particularly brutal & graceless week. Let's replace the witch hunt with empathy!"
However, the tweet didn't sit well with Kangana Ranaut and netizens. She was also accused of 'whitewashing nepotism' and several people called her out for being insensitive and claiming that suicide is a choice.

You entitled, elitist folk really have no clue, do you.....New low!" read another comment.

#SushantSinghRajput deserves anything but silence . No one chooses to pass away quickly. Please don't make it about the industry at least now. Listen to what his father is saying, reflect & begin a conversation. Can you?
