Mumbai: Sandip Ssingh, the producer of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s biopic, has shared private chats he had with late actor Sushant Singh Rajput and sister Mitu Singh in a bid to prove his friendship.
He shared messages with Sushant dating from November 2016 to June 2018 on Instagram and wrote, “Sorry bhai, my silence has broken 20 years of my image and family into pieces. I was unaware that friendship requires a certificate in today’s time. Today I am making our personal chats public, as this is the last resort which proves our equation.”
He also explained his presence at Sushant’s residence immediately after the actor’s death and what happened with the driver that took Sushant to Cooper Hospital.
He wrote, “On 14th June when I heard about you I was unable to stop myself and I rushed to your house in grief but was shocked to see no one present except Mittu Didi. I am still thinking about whether I was wrong to stand by your sister in that critical time or I should have waited for your other friends to come.”
“Everyone is saying that your family does not know me. Yes, it’s correct, I never met your family. Is it my fault to help a grieving sister alone in this city to complete the final rites of a brother?”
Earlier, Sushant’s family lawyer Vikas Singh had told Pinkvilla that Sandip was unknown to the family. “Meetu (Sushant’s sister) was devastated after seeing Sushant’s body so she went and she was lying down in the room so he just saw an opportunity and he took charge. Nobody in the family knows him, how did he come there. Suddenly how did he start taking charge? Since nobody from the family was there, there was an opening for him. I guess it should have been Pithani (Siddharth, Sushant’s flatmate) who should have been there and not Sandip,” he said.
