Grief of Sushant’s family is being undermined and usurped: Shruti

-

situation? I really don’t think it’s right for people to usurp this terrible tragedy in trying to make comments.”

Ruing how some people are using this case to settle their personal scores, Seth says, “I’d request everyone to not give time and space to people to forward their own agenda and reformist attitude. Whatever maybe the case, this is not the time. The grief of a family is being undermined and usurped.”

Rajput’s death is not just shrouded in mystery, but it has also kick-started several debates about the film industry and its functionin­g. Seth believes such conversati­ons can wait till things get better. “Too many things are getting muddled. These debates can happen later also. No big reforms are happening right now, anyway. We’re dealing with a strange time, and all we need to be is kind,” she tells us.

Seth, 42, feels everyone should just celebrate Rajput’s life and his achievemen­ts as the investigat­ion takes its course. “It has been a deep loss for the industry and the country. Let’s not talk about anything else. Let us be dignified and send prayers to the family. I hope Sushant rests in peace and his family finds the strength to deal with this irreparabl­e loss. I am a parent and I can totally understand what his family is going through,” she concludes.
