Sushant Singh Rajput death: Sachin Tendulkar, Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma and cricket fraternity mourn Bollywood actor's demise

Sushant Singh Rajput death: The unfortunate passing away of 34-year old Bollywood actor has come as a shocker to the nation.

Prominent Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput has reportedly committed suicide by handing himself at his Bandra flat in Mumbai.

The unfortunate development has come as a shocker for the whole nation which is already battling with the novel COVID-19 pandemic.

While no confirmation has been made with respect to the reason behind Rajput taking such a drastic step, it is being said that he was suffering from depression from the last six months and the same is likely to have got the better of him.

Rajput has become the fourth high-profile Bollywood celebrity after actors Irrfan, Rishi Kapoor and music director Wajid Khan to bid adieu to the world in the last month or so.

Rajput, who entered the entertainment industry via daily soaps, made his feature film debut in Abhishek Kapoor’s ‘Kai Po Che!’ (2013). The last of Rajput’s 11 feature films was Tarun Mansukhani’s ‘Drive’ which had released on Netflix last year.

Rajput was slated to play the lead role alongside debutant Sanjana Sanghi in Mukesh Chhabra’s ‘Dil Bechara’ which is an adaption of English movie titled ‘The Fault in our Stars’.

Rajput, whose movie titled ‘Chhichhore’ had been lauded commercially and critically last year, had played the character of former India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni in his biopic named ‘MS Dhoni: The Untold Story’ (2016).
