Yesterday
(July
6,
2020),
filmmaker
Sanjay
Leela
Bhansali
recorded
his
statement
at
the
Bandra
station
in
connection
with
late
actor
Sushant
Singh
Rajput's
demise.
Sushant
died
by
suicide
on
June
14.
Ever
since
he
left
for
his
heavenly
abode,
netizens
have
displayed
their
outrage
over
the
treatment
of
outsiders
in
the
film
industry.
Earlier,
many
reports
hinted
that
Sushant
was
supposed
to
be
cast
in
Goliyon
Ki
Rasleela:
Ram-Leela,
but
he
was
later
replaced
by
Ranveer
Singh.
Many
reports
also
claim
that
both
Sushant
and
Bhansali
were
fond
of
each
other
and
wanted
to
collaborate
for
a
film,
but
nothing
got
materialised.
With
respect
to
Bhansali's
recorded
statement,
DCP
Abhishek
Trimukh
revealed
to
media
that
the
filmmaker
was
supposed
to
cast
Sushant
in
four
of
his
films.
He
said,
"Sanjay
Leela
Bhansali
was
planning
to
take
Sushant
in
four
of
his
films.
But
due
to
unavailability
of
dates
the
films
had
other
actors."
He
further
added,
"Mumbai
Police
is
investigating
into
all
important
details
about
this
case.
Mumbai
Police
is
awaiting
response
from
Nodal
of
Twitter,
about
the
alleged
tweets
circulated
on
social
media
from
SSR
handle."
So
far,
at
least
28
people
including,
Sushant's
family,
Rhea
Chakraborty
and
Sanjana
Sanghi,
have
been
questioned
and
their
statements
have
been
recorded
in
connection
with
Sushant's
death.
A
few
days
ago,
a
complaint
was
also
filed
against
Sanjay
Leela
Bhansali,
Salman
Khan,
Karan
Johar,
Ekta
Kapoor,
Sajid
Nadiadwala
and
Aditya
Chopra,
by
a
lawyer
in
a
court
in
Bihar.
He
accused
the
mentioned
celebrities
for
mentally
torturing
the
actor
which
compelled
him
to
end
his
life.
