Rajdeep Sardesai speaking on the issue of Sushant Singh Rajput’s death made shocking condescending remarks against the deceased actor claiming that the 34-year-old was “not such a big actor anyway for which the Mumbai Police should have been put under so much pressure”. “People have lost their trust in the police. Questions are being raised on public institutions, IPS officers, be it Mumbai or Bihar Police. Are they really carrying out a fair probe? Let’s be very honest about it. Sushant Singh Rajput was not such a big star that Mumbai Police should be put under so much pressure,” said Rajdeep Sardesai on the Sushant Singh Rajput’s death case. Who is that VIP pressurising the police forces to carry out investigations?” asked Rajdeep Sardesai.
Rajdeep Sardesai’s statements were shocking, to say the least. If one is to go by the logic being provided by Rajdeep, it would mean that he is saying Sushant Singh Rajput’s death deserves less attention and dedication in the investigation since he was not “that big a star”. Further, calling the investigation into Sushant Singh Rajput’s death a ‘circus’, Rajdeep Sardesai went on to claim that the issue has now turned out to be another feud between Mumbai Police and Bihar Police.
On the other hand, Arnab Goswami and his team from Republic TV is investigating and interviewing each and every person involved in the case and is even questioning Maharashtra CM as to why the State is scared of an impartial probe and why it is blocking a CBI entry into Maharashtra. The viewership of Republic TV has gone up by leaps and bounds.
