It has almost been a month now, but the drastic step taken by Sushant Singh Rajput has not only left his fans devastated but also sprung up multiple queries in their heads. In the face of all this, the Mumbai Police is doing their bit to interrogate almost everyone in Bollywood and the cinema world at large who had a close association with the deceased actor. Lately, director Shekhar Kapur was also called for his statement on June 29th but as he was not in the city, the director has conveyed his detailed statement through email to the police in which he disclosed that the late actor was shattered when his film ‘Pani’ with YRF was put off due to creative differences between the actor and the production house. Shekhar Kapur also indicated that this was the possible reason for the actor battling depression.
