Bollywood star Sushant Singh Rajput passed away on June 14, 2020, after he was found hanging at his residence. Today, January 21, marks his 35th birth anniversary, and on this occasion, few Bollywood celebrities like Ankita Lokhande, Ekta Kapoor, Kangana Ranaut, and Kiara Advani remembered the late actor with heartfelt social media posts. They hurled themselves into the realms of memories and talked about his glory and the times they have spent with him.

Talking about Lokhande's post first, she shared some old and unseen videos of the actor and it's surely likely to leave all his fans teary-eyed. This is what she had to write on her Instagram post- "I don't know how to start and what to say but yes today I'm gonna share few of yours old videos Sushant to celebrate you .these are the only memories I hv with u and i will always remember Like this happy."

Kiara Advani shared a still from her film M.S. Dhoni: The Untold Story and extended a heart to Rajput. Ekta Kapoor also shared a small video of the actor and wrote this- "Sushi forever ! Shining bright like a star! Love n light wherever u r! Happie birth on earth day!" [SIC] Here it is:

Kangana Ranaut had some strong things to say about how the actor had to suffer in the industry. She tweeted- "Dear Sushant, movie mafia banned you bullied you and harassed you, many times on social media you aksed for help and I regret not being there for you. I wish I didn't assume you are strong enough to handle mafia torture on your own. I wish ... Happy Birthday dear one #SushantDay." [SIC]

Rajkummar Rao, who worked with him in Kai Po Che, shared a picture of the actor playing guitar. and Abhishek Kapoor, who directed the film, shared a picture with him and wrote how he misses him. Have a look:

For Rajput, success happened pretty early in the form of Pavitra Rishta, a very famous and popular television show. After Pavitra Rishta and its subsequent success, it was Bollywood calling for Rajput and he made a gripping debut with 2013's Kai Po Che. A resonating, relevant film that explored the themes of friendship, religion, and hope, Rajput delivered a confident, charismatic performance and it was immediately announced that a new star had arrived on the block.

There was no looking back for the actor then. He went on to do films like Shuddh Desi Romance, PK, Kedarnath, Sonchiriya, and Chhichhore. His most memorable performance came in 2016 when he took the challenge to emulate the physical and emotional nuances of Mahendra Singh Dhoni in his biopic, M.S. Dhoni: The Untold Story. Lauded by fans and critics alike for his effective and energetic performance, Rajput nailed such a complex character with ease and aplomb!
