Manoj Bajpayee remembers late friend Sushant Singh Rajput, says, ‘He was troubled by blind articles’

Manoj Bajpayee and Sushant Singh Rajput

For an outsider to come to the industry and make his or her name is not an easy task, but Manoj Bajpayee is an inspiration for many. The actor has made his name with his hard work and versatility. He has always been open about the struggles outsiders face and about his late friend Sushant Singh Rajput.

In a recent interview with Siddharth Kannan, the actor opened up about how Sushant was really affected by blind articles people used to write about him. Bajpayee shared, "Sushant was very vulnerable when it came to blind articles. He was a very good human being, and it is only a good person who can get affected by these things. He would often come to me and ask how to deal with these things. I used to tell him not to take these things seriously because I have gone through such situations before, and I am still bearing the brunt of such articles against me."

Manoj Bajpayee further shared that Sushant was a very sensitive and intelligent person. He said, "I told him to handle people whose films are working, who are in power. I would handle such people in a different way. I would tell my friends to convey to them that I would come and beat them up. What's important is that the message is conveyed. Sushant used to laugh and would say, ‘Sir aap he kar sakte ho, mein nahi kar sakta ye (Sir only you can do it, I can't). But he was troubled by blind articles. He was a very sensitive and intelligent person."

Sushant Singh Rajput's Case:

Sushant Singh Rajput's unfortunate demise occurred on June 14, 2020. The following year saw reports of his sea-facing Mumbai residence being offered for rent, commanding a monthly fee of ₹4.5 lakh for the duplex property. The case surrounding Sushant's passing was subsequently handed over to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI). However, despite the passage of three years, the CBI's investigation has yet to reach a definitive conclusion regarding the circumstances of his death.
