Producer Prernaa Arora worked with Sushant Singh Rajput in ‘Kedarnath’ and she shared a great camaraderie with him. In an interview with Mid-Day, Prernaa was all praise for the late actor saying that she was ‘completely in awe of him’ as he was a ‘superbly intelligent actor’. “He was a true artiste and at the same time, a man who had so many dreams. From whatever I saw of him in those two years, he definitely had leadership qualities,” said Prernaa.
Prernaa felt a lot of pain for Sushant and it has shaken her. She said, “In my prayers, I ask God to give his father the strength as he is not from the industry.”
The director of ‘Chanda Mama Door Ke’, Sushant and Prernaa were close to each other. Prernaa revealed that Sushant was obsessed with the film as the subject of it was close to his heart. “As we all know, astronomy was his favourite subject and studied it for the film too. I don’t know if he was depressed, but he did seem hurt. I don’t know what or who hurt him,” said Prernaa.
Sushant Singh Rajput ended his life on June 14 by hanging himself from a ceiling fan at his Bandra residence. His death has left a void not only in his family but in the entire industry. His last film ‘Dil Bechara’ also starring Sanjana Sanghi will have an OTT release on July 24.
