Swastika
Mukherjee,
who
worked
with
the
late
Sushant
Singh
Rajput
in
his
last
release
Dil
Bechara,
as
well
as
2015's
Detective
Byomkesh
Bakshy!,
has
pointed
that
the
film's
viewership
increased
only
in
the
weeks
following
Sushant's
death.
Swastika
wrote
on
Twitter,
"Thousands
and
literally
thousands
of
people
are
watching
#DetectiveByomkeshBakshy
now.
NOW
is
the
word
that's
most
important.
Where
were
all
of
them
when
the
film
released
I
wonder
?!
Regret
is
better
and
bigger
than
gratitude."

She
raised
an
important
point
that
audiences
are
also
responsible
for
maintaining
the
insider-outsider
system
in
the
film
industry,
by
not
supporting
outsiders
the
same
way
as
they
support
insiders,
by
watching
their
films.
Detective
Byomkesh
Bakshy!
was
based
on
the
character
created
by
Bengali
writer,
Sharadindu
Bandyopadhyay,
and
was
directed
by
Dibakar
Banerjee.
It
was
produced
by
Banerjee
and
Aditya
Chopra.
Although
the
film
was
praised
by
critics,
it
failed
at
the
box
office,
putting
plans
of
a
sequel
on
hold.
Agreeing
with
Swastika,
a
fan
replied,
"I
watched
Detective
Byomkesh
Bakshi
in
an
empty
theatre.
There
were
literally
4
other
people,
and
this
was
the
first
week."
The
insider-outsider
discussion
has
been
reignited
following
the
death
of
Sushant
Singh
Rajput.
While
many
fans
of
the
late
actor
are
putting
the
blame
on
the
Hindi
film
industry
for
its
differential
treatment
to
insiders
and
outsiders,
some
celebrities,
who
are
themselves
'outsiders'
in
the
business,
have
said
that
there
are
three
groups
of
people
responsible
for
this:
the
industry,
media
and
audiences.
A
few
days
back,
Anurag
Kashyap
gave
an
example
of
'nepotism
by
media',
by
sharing
a
news
piece
which
featured
photos
of
Tiger
Shroff
and
Taimur
Ali
Khan's
spotting
by
the
paparazzi,
and
alluded
that
the
media
too
participates
in
hyping
up
star
kids.
