       The suicide of actor Sushant Singh Rajput aka SSR has shocked the Bollywood and the film-goers. Sushant Singh Rajput started his career in Television and within few years he got his first break in film 'Kai Po Che' where Sushant played a character of Cricket Coach who is possessed by a dream to make a Child from his Cricket academy ready to play for India. This film has backdrops of Earthquakes and Godhra riots aftermath. Rajkumar Rao and Amit Sadh too played their roles very well but Sushant Singh Rajput's raw energy and superb acting didn't go unnoticed. After the success of 'Kai Po Che,' Sushant Singh Rajput started getting good offers for the lead role and he worked in several films like Shudh Desi Romance, PK, Raabta, Chichore and so on. But the film which made him Popular star is a biopic on Captain cool Mahendra Singh Dhoni: 'M.S.Dhoni - an Untold story'. No one could have played this role better than Sushant. Some scenes from the film showed his acting potential so well that people forgot that they are watching Sushant playing the role of Dhoni and watched the film as if they are watching the journey of actual Dhoni in front of their eyes. The frustration of Mahi during his Job in Railways, his sorrow after the death of his girlfriend, and his splendid innings as a Captain of the Indian team which went to win World Cup for India. Sushant Singh Rajput played the role of his life in this film. Now as Sushant is no more, his work will remain with us forever and after watching Sarfaraz and Dhoni on Screen in these movies we will always wonder, how can an actor who acted so well and made these films hit committed suicide? 

           After the suicide of Sushant Singh Rajput, many news channels covered the story of Journey of Sushant Singh Rajput. Social media got flooded with RIP messages. Twitter started bashing Karan Johar, flagbearer of Nepotism for hypocrisy shown by him after the death of SSR. Twitter handle 'Bollywood Insider' claimed that many big production houses including Dharma Productions, Yash Raj Films, and Salman Khan Films banned Sushant Singh Rajput and also convinced few more to ban him as well. Tweeple said that something happened during the filming of 'Drive' movie which hurt the Ego of that big shot producer which resulted in the outcasting of Sushant Singh Rajput. After which Sushant Singh Rajput went into depression. He was taking treatment on depression from the last 6 months and also documents which police got in his home confirmed the same. Sushant was in a relationship with Rhea Chakravarty which recently went sour which added to his depression. Sushant hanged to his ceiling fan and committed suicide due to all these professionals and personal reasons. Those who know him very well couldn't believe it and demanded a thorough investigation of the same. Sushant was full of life and a very positive person with very big dreams and high ambitions. No one was ready to believe that such a positive person can end his life like a loser. 

      We all knew Sushant as an actor. But after his death, we realized he was more than that. The acting was just a small part of his magnificent life. He came from a very humble background and achieved so many things in such a short time that there was no reason to believe that he had any financial reasons to end his life. He was academically good and craked AIEEE as a ranker to enter DTU. He dropped from Engineering to pursue his acting career as he wanted recognization. He did theatre, danced behind big stars like Aishwarya, Hritik as a background dancer in Shamak Davar group, learned to fight, acting, and prepared himself for a career in Bollywood. No one remembers his first debut serial. But everyone definitely knows Pavitra Rishta where he played the lead role of Maanav Deshmukh. His chemistry with Ankita Lokhande made that couple one of the most loved couple on television in those days. They also participated in dance reality shows after that where Sushant proposed Ankita. Everything was going good between them but as Sushant Singh Rajput started getting roles in films, their relationship started weakened. SSR's name was linked to actress Pariniti Chopra and then Kriti Sanon during his film-career. Recently people came to know about Rhea and Sushant's live-in relationship. During a lockdown, they fought on some personal issues and Rhea left his house to stay with her friend. It's said that Sushant tried to call her before committing suicide but she didn't pick up the phone. Sushant had good relations with actors with whom he worked during his television days. He tried to call one of his friends too but as it was past 3:00 a.m in the morning he too didn't pick up the phone. When his friend called back, Sushant was already dead. Police is investigating all the call records of Sushant Singh Rajput to find out what are the reasons behind his untimely exit. 

     Sushant's list of 50 dreams he wanted to achieve, his interest in quantum and astrophysics, his intentions to send children to NASA, educate underprivileged children, the companies he formed, etc. all show that Sushant was a highly intelligent person who interests in diversified sectors. He always carried books on set to read during the breaks. He fulfilled most of his dreams by planning them well in advance and working for them. He always worked really hard to improve himself. Sushant Singh Rajput was a good-hearted man and yet he was treated as an Outsider by some Gangs of Bollywood where he tried to fit when he started his journey in films. His last released film Chichore spoke about fighting in life and never giving up, but he himself committed suicide. Such an Irony! People are waiting for his next release Dil Bechara which well release soon on the OTT platform. We don't know what were the reasons behind Sushant Singh Rajput's suicide, but we all are really angry on people who sent him in depression. R.I.P  Sushant.
