It has been two months since the unfortunate demise of Sushant Singh Rajput and so far, the Mumbai Police has interrogated people he was close to, people who worked with him, and even actors and filmmakers like Rhea Chakraborty, Sanjay Leela Bhansali, and Mahesh Bhatt. And in these two months, there have been lots of debates and discussions about what exactly happened on June 14.
The one name that started coming up is of Sooraj Pancholi. Despite denying any sort of involvement, he continues to face the ire on social media. And in an interview recently, when asked about the same, this is what he had to say, "My mother thinks that I'm going to harm myself. And she has spoken to me a couple of times. Even after Sushant's death, she spoke to me saying, 'Sooraj, whatever it is, if there's anything in your heart please come and talk to us. Don't be quiet.' I'm not a very talkative person when it comes to my problems. I don't discuss with my family because I know they're stressed because of me"
