Sushant Singh Rajput Death Case updates: Actor dreamt of working in Hollywood in 2020, reveals diary

The Supreme Court is scheduled to hear on Thursday a PIL seeking an "unified" CBI probe into the death case of Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput, contending that "the entire country is shocked with the way the Mumbai Police is handling this case".

The actor wanted to connect with a Hollywood agency and stars. He wanted to contribute to education, cinema and environment. He wanted to make a core team who would take care of his 2020 Hollywood project. 

Sushant Singh Rajput wanted to work in Hollywood in the year 2020, reveals pages from his diary. The new diary which has now come to light was written by the late actor in 2018-19.

It is unfortunate that a person died by suicide, but why is it being discussed so much? I don't think it is such a big issue. A farmer told me that over 20 farmers have died by suicide, nobody spoke about it: Sharad Panwar

I've seen Maharashtra & Mumbai police for last 50 years & I trust them. I don't want to comment on what others have accused them of. If someone thinks that CBI or any other agency should probe the matter then I won't oppose it:  NCP chief Sharad Pawar

The way he has behaved after registration of FIR, the way he is writing email to Rhea when she's a named accused. Helping a named accused in this manner shows complicity between Rhea and him. It is only upon custodial interrogation that the real truth will come out: Vikas Singh

If there has been any kind of miss on our part, we'll think about it. But I'll have to look into it. What I've said so far is based on info I've, Sushant's family is speaking on basis of info they've.

Siddarth Peethani's statement was taken by ED until 2 am last night. He reached the ED office at 11.30 am yesterday. In the second round, Siddharth was asked about Sushant and his financial statements, income tax records, etc. He was also probed on his contract with Sushant and what was the mode of payment of salary.

Actions of Siddharth Pithani are suspicious. Only he can tell what happened that day--suicide or murder. Not only Rhea but a lot of other people are behind this. The family just wants justice for Sushant- KK Singh's lawyer Vikas Singh

The way in which Mumbai police is causing obstructions hints that something is definitely wrong, says late actor KK Singh's lawyer

According to Rhea's statement to ED, when the two stayed at a heritage hotel in Italy, painting of 'Saturn Devouring His Own Child' left him shaken which is why they had to cut short their trip. As soon as he saw the painting the actor started chanting mantras using a Rudraksh, informed the actress. 

Actor's brother sends a notice to Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut. He recently hit out at Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut for making controversial remarks about the late actor’s family.

'This is murder,' says actor's staff member and friend.

People want action, we are ready to help CBI in whatever way possible: DGP Pandey

The entire country is talking about foul play in the case: Bihar DGP

Ankita Lokhande, ex-girlfriend of Sushant Singh Rajput, has shared with fans her prayers for justice, over the verdict of the Supreme Court hearing on Tuesday.

Ankita's reaction came in response to a tweet by Sushant's sister Shweta Singh Kirti on Tuesday morning, from the latter's unverified account. "I request everyone to pray for a positive outcome of the Supreme Court hearing. #Warriors4Sushant #LetsPray #Godiswithus #JusticeforSushantSingRajput," wrote Shweta.

Reacting to the tweet, Ankita on Tuesday afternoon tweeted from her verified account: "Always di, prayers and positivity."

Sushant Singh Rajput's sister Shweta Singh Kirti shared an old video of the actor training with the CRPF jawans. She wrote, "Mera Bhai... love you infinity to the power infinity You will eternally remain in our hearts."

Senior advocate A.M. Singhvi, representing the Maharashtra government, contended before Justice Hrishikesh Roy that the Bihar government got involved only to politically exploit the case ahead of the state elections.

Singhvi argued that for a CBI probe, consent by a state is mandatory and the only exceptions are the order of the CBI probe by High Courts and Supreme Court. "And this power must be exercised by a constitutional court sparingly, only in rare cases," submitted Singhvi.

Sushant's father KK Singh told the Supreme court that Sushant's family never saw his body hanging and this creates suspicion. "The larger picture is that my client has lost his son," he said, adding that the Mumbai Police did not listen to Sushant's father and "took the investigations into a completely different direction," he said.

"His daughter could enter after the body was reportedly brought down. Nobody in the family has seen his body hanging," he argued.
