Mahesh Bhatt recently had said that “It is Parveen Babi all over again,” and now it is being reported that he advised Sushant’s girlfriend Rhea Chakraborty to leave.
Suhrita Sengupta, a close associate of filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt, who had also written the film Jalebi, revealed various things about the late actor.
According to her, Bhatt Saab identified the desolation under Sushant’s constant exuberance. “He had seen it in Parveen Babi and he knew there was nothing that would be done except medication. Rhea who stuck on in spite of Sushant’s rapid descent into depression tried her best to ensure that Sushant would take his medication. But he refused.”
Sushant Singh Rajput had isolated himself from all the outsiders, and Rhea also left him when she couldn’t handle the mental turbulence of the actor
.
Suhrita told National Herald India, “During the last year, he had cut himself completely from all outside contact. Rhea was with him until she could take it no longer. There came a time when Sushant began hearing voices. He began to feel people were trying to kill him. One day an Anurag Kashyap film was playing in Sushant’s home and he told Rhea, ‘I said no to an offer from Kashyap. Now he’s going to come to kill me.’ That’s when Rhea was too frightened to stay with Sushant any longer.”
According to Suhrita, Rhea had no choice rather than leaving the late actor, Bhatt Saab had told her that it was nothing that she could do. Sushant wasn’t taking medications either, no matter how hard his sisters insisted.
National Herald further quoted Suhrita as saying, “She had no choice. Bhatt Saab told her there was nothing she could do. If she stayed on she would lose her sanity too. Rhea waited for Sushant’s sister to come to Mumbai and take charge. Sushant’s sisters tried their best to support and comfort him. But he was beyond listening to anyone. He wouldn’t take his medication.”
