Sushant Singh Rajput was only 34 years old when he ended his life. The actor, who broke on to the big screen with his first film, Kai Po Che, in 2013, has worked in several Bollywood films in the next years.
The entire country was shocked beyond words on Sunday afternoon, when the news of Sushant’s death broke. From Bollywood to sports stars, to political leaders, everyone has been pouring their condolences on social media.
Sushant Singh Rajput was born in Patna in 1986. His ancestral village is in Bihar’s Purnea. Sushant lost his mother when he was only 16 years old. Time and again, Sushant had said how the death of his mother changed him as a person.
In 2002, after his mother’s death, his family moved from Patna to Delhi. Sushant studied Engineering for three years in Delhi before dropping out of college and moving to Mumbai to chase his Bollywood dreams.
After Kai Po Che, Sushant Singh Rajput had delivered a number of hits and some films that did not work at the box office. MS Dhoni: The Untold Story, the biopic on former Indian skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni, changed his box office journey. The film went on to become a massive blockbuster, catapulting Sushant to unbelievable fame. Sushant Singh Rajput’s last film, Chhichhore, that released in 2019, was a sleeper hit.
