Putting a spotlight on the fact that his sister had a secret Instagram account and often posted videos regarding the suicide of Indian actor Rajput, he said in Hindi, which translates to, "Sushant Singh Rajput committed suicide on 14th June 2020. Why? Because Bollywood and this industry put a lot of pressure on him, and because of that pressure, he committed suicide. In the same way, yesterday my sister also committed suicide for the same reason, that's what I'm saying. This industry scares a lot and threatens. Like it did to Sushant Singh Rajput. They ate him up and made him hollow from within. Big people have a hand in this. Ultimately, a power game is played. In middle-class families like ours, if a girl or a boy moves up, they are suppressed."
