Sushant Singh Rajput’s uncle demands an investigation into actor’s death

Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput’s uncle has called for an investigation into the Chhichhore star’s death.

The 34-year-old actor was found hanging in his apartment in Mumbai on Sunday morning. The news of his suicide has sent shock waves across Bollywood, his family and fans.

Speaking to an Indian news channel, the Kedarnath star’s uncle RC Singh said “He cannot commit suicide. He was a strong and happy boy.”

“I think its a conspiracy. I demand on behalf of the family that a thorough investigation must be conducted,” he added.

Rajput’s last rites were performed today (Monday) for which his father and family members flew down to Mumbai.

Sushant Singh Rajput earned fame through TV and then made his Bollywood debut in the buddy drama Kai Po Che! (2013), for which he received a nomination for the Filmfare Award for Best Male Debut.

He then starred in the romantic comedy Shuddh Desi Romance (2013) and as the titular detective in the action thriller Detective Byomkesh Bakshy! (2015). His highest-grossing releases came with a supporting role in the satire PK (2014), followed by the titular role in the sports biopic M.S. Dhoni: The Untold Story (2016). For his performance in the latter, he received his first nomination for the Filmfare Award for Best Actor.
