IN A HEART-TO-HEART TALK WITH VEDANSHI PATHAK, SANJANA SANGHI SHARES HER MEMORIES OF THE LATE SUSHANT SINGH RAJPUT

- VEDANSHI PATHAK

The untimely demise of actor Sushant Singh Rajput left behind a stinging silence for days. What then erupted was a social media movement to seek justice for him and let truth triumph. Amidst the chaos, his last film Dil Bechara was released online. Breaking several records with its digital release, the film was received with a never-seen-before adulation. The film, an adaptation of the Hollywood hit The Fault In Our Stars, co-starred Sanjana Sanghi along with Sushant. The young lass became an overnight sensation because of it. While she does feel elated with the success, Sanjana has yet to come to terms with Sushant’s death. She tries to process it in words but fails. Her eyes mist over, her lips tremble as she reflects, “I’m trying to gain the strength to talk about him in the past tense. Somehow I’m not strong enough to go back to that dreadful Sunday, like I call it, because that’s what it was. My phone started blasting at like 100 calls a minute. It was one of the worst afternoons of my life,” she shudders, reliving the tragic moments all over again.
