Speaking about Sushant, Dibakar remembered his conversations with the late actor and praised him. The director also said that he was upset over the conspiracy theories related to his death.
The filmmaker said, “When he passed away, there was so much going on in the news about the cause of his death. I had to cut-off myself from everything.

So, I had to walk away from the situation.

"Nobody was saying that ‘We are missing Sushant’. Nobody was talking abut how despite being an outsider he acted in television and finally made his debut in movies. Everyone was just speculating about the conspiracy, who gave drugs to Sushant, who murdered him. Where is that condolence meet? Where is the retrospective on his films? Those who loved him should have organised a screening of his movies and discussed about it. Why don't we cherish all his good memories? Sushant Singh Rajput has become a gate to misery borne,” he added.
