Yesterday, KJo took to Insta and shared a picture with late actor and blamed himself for not keeping in touch with him. His caption read, “I blame myself for not being in touch with you for the past year….. I have felt at times like you may have needed people to share your life with…but somehow I never followed up on that feeling…will never make that mistake again…we live in very energetic and noisy but still very isolated times …some of us succumb to these silences and go within…we need to not just make relationships but also constantly nurture them….Sushants unfortunate demise has been a huge wake up call to me …to my level of compassion and to my ability to foster and protect my equations…..I hope this resonates with all of you as well….will miss your infectious smile and your bear hug .” KJo mourned the loss of SSR.
Netizens lost their cool on this post by Karan Johar and started bashing him in the comment.

The second celebrity on the radar was Actor Alia Bhatt. When Alia tweeted, “I’m in deep state of shock, Sushant was a one of the most loved and admired faces of Indian celluloid.”
