Rhea Chakraborty had taken a sabbatical from social media after all the negativity that surrounded her after the demise of Sushant Singh Rajput. However, she recently shared an Instagram post where she quoted Rabindranath Tagore. And now, she has also come out to help people who are crippled by the COVID-19 crisis.
She wrote on her Instagram story- "Tough times call for unity, help all those that you can⦠Small help or big help, help is help... Dm me if I can help in any way... will try my best... take care, be kind... Love and strength."[SIC]
She was accused by Sushant's family for abetment to suicide and also siphoning off funds from the late actor. She was also named in the first Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) chargesheet along with her brother Showik in a drug-related probe into Sushant's death case.
Rhea was arrested last year and spent a month in Mumbai's Byculla jail in September last year in a drug-related charge. Meanwhile, the actress is part of the film "Chehre" starring actors Amitabh Bachchan and Emraan Hashmi. This is her first film release after Sushant's death.

The actress was missing from the first poster and teaser of the film, which sparked off rumours of her being ousted from the project. Directed by Rumy Jafry, "Chehre" also features Annu Kapoor, Raghubir Yadav, Krystle D'Souza and Raghubir Yadav. She has also acted in films like Bank Chor, Mere Dad Ki Maruti, Half Girlfriend and Jalebi.
