After Sushant Singh Rajput in June 2020, Politician Sanjay Nirupam, in a strongly-worded tweet, has claimed that actor Sushant Singh Rajput lost seven films in just six months despite giving hit a like ‘Chhichhore’ and he also alleged that the industry's ruthlessness works on a very different level. In a tweet in Hindi, Sanjay Nirupam said, "After the success of ‘Chhichhore’, Sushant Singh Rajput had signed seven films. He lost the films in just six months. Why? The film industry's ruthlessness works on a very different level. And that ruthlessness took the life of one talented person."
He did not specify which films these were. Mr Rajput was found dead at home and police say he died by suicide. His death has sparked severe criticism of the film industry, many of whom declared themselves shattered. Very few of those who posted actually attended the actor's funeral, and not a single A-lister was among them. Sanjay Nirupam was at the funeral, as were actors Kriti Sanon, Shraddha Kapoor, Rajkummar Rao and Vivek Oberoi, and filmmaker Abhishek Kapoor who gave Sushant Singh Rajput his break in Bollywood.
In his tweet, written in Hindi, Sanjay Nirupam wrote that the cruelty of the film industry operates on another level and that it killed a talented artiste, meaning Mr Rajput. Sushant Singh Rajput allegedly struggled with alienation and isolation over the last few months. Mr Nirupam's words bolster those of director Shekhar Kapur, who cast Mr Rajput in the delayed project Paani. In a cryptic tweet posted after the actor's death, Mr Kapur referred to "people that let you down so bad that you would weep on my shoulder."
