Manoj Bajpayee
recently revealed that he had spoken to
Sushant Singh Rajput
ten days before his death and shared what troubled his
Sonchiriya
co-actor the most.
During an interview with Siddharth Kannan, Manoj disclosed, “Sushant was quite troubled by
blind articles
, i.e., articles with no truth behind them. He was a very good person, and anyone who is good will be troubled by such articles.
He would often ask me what he should do. I always told him not to think too much about it.”
Manoj mentioned that his last conversation with Sushant revolved around blind articles. “I have a different way of dealing with those who publish such blind articles. Whenever people who publish such articles met me, I used to tell their friends that Manoj will come and give them a good beating. He used to laugh a lot at this. He would say, ‘Sir, only you can do this.’ He would always tell me, ‘Sir, I want to eat the mutton made by me.’ I would say that when I make it, I will definitely feed you.”

Reflecting on Sushant’s untimely demise, Manoj expressed, “His death occurred just ten days later. I was surprised. I still can’t believe that Sushant and
Irrfan Khan
are gone. They both left too soon. Their time was yet to come.”
Sushant’s passing in June 2020 sent shockwaves through the entertainment industry. Found dead in his Mumbai apartment, initial reports pointed to suicide, sparking ongoing debates and inquiries into other potential contributing factors.
