Mumbai: Late actor Sushant Singh Rajput had reportedly paid salaries to his staff three days before his death. He even told the staff that he won’t be able to pay them any further.
The actor’s staff, however, did not know his real intentions about his suicide. They were instead grateful about getting their salaries in advance during the Covid-19 pandemic. They thanked Sushant for doing more than enough by paying them so far.
The Mumbai police is conducting an investigation in the suicide of the late actor. On Thursday, Sushant’s rumoured girlfriend, actor Rhea Chakraborty went to the Bandra police station to record her statement. On Wednesday, police recorded the statement of Bollywood casting director Mukesh Chhabra, who was also close to Sushant.
According to the police, Sushant was depressed and was also taking medication for the same. The police were trying to understand reasons behind his depression. So far, the police have recorded statements of more than 10 people, including the actor’s family members.
His father K K Singh reportedly told the police that he and other family members didn’t know that the actor had depression, but knew he would often feel ‘low’. Earlier, Maharashtra Home Minister Anil Deshmukh said the Mumbai Police will also probe the angle of “professional rivalry” which was alleged to be the cause of the suicide.
