Vishal, who is married to Sushant's sister Shweta Singh Kirti, shared a link of his blog on his unverified Twitter account, in which he has criticised the journalist in question for stating " the way the family has reacted says a lot about the burden of being a son in a Bihari family" in her article.

Responding to the article, Vishal tweeted: "This is where Jyoti's (journalist) stereotypical 'toxic Bihari family' trope gets debunked. The FIR didn't say that my father-in-law couldn't stand Ankita. The FIR mentions one specific person called Rhea and giving it an anti-feminist flare is toxic journalism."

Vishal mentioned that the write-up has affected Sushant's family. "I wanted to let it go since, despite the tragedy in the family, I have to work just like many of Sushant's other family members and after a long work-week, I was reluctant about addressing these issues. But decided otherwise since I found out that this was affecting not only my loved ones but people from Bihar in general.

"Let me say at the outset that the aforementioned article is unintelligent in many ways and is extremely offensive, not only to Sushant's family but to Indian families in general," he added.

Lawyer Ishkaran Singh Bandari has filed a case against psychotherapist Susan Walker who opened up about Sushant Singh Rajput's mental health. Bhandari took to Twitter and stated, "Ms Susan Walker spoke on Mental Condition of Sushant Singh Rajput. I have written to RCI asking - did she take exam and is she registered with them? And has she fulfilled mandatory requirements for those with foreign degree to practise in India? If not then take action!"
