After Sushant Singh Rajput’s demise on June 14, several reports cite depression and stress behind his drastic step to end his life. Several Bollywood celebrities have been coming forward to show their support for those who are suffering from depression. But, Sushant’s friend and ‘Pavitra Rishta’ co-star Rithvik Dhanjani bashed those who are showing ‘fake sense of care’ all of a sudden.

Rithvik took to his Instagram handle to share a video where he mourned Sushant’s death and expressed his annoyance towards those trying to reach out now. In the video, he can be heard saying, “It’s funny how suddenly people have realised that they are going to be there. Aise zameer kaise jaag utha hai? I too have been getting these messages. I don’t need it. The one who needed it didn’t have it. And somewhere we are all culprits that we couldn’t be there when we could have been. Let’s all become more human. Stop judging people and start to genuinely care about each other”.

He further added, “We talk about lending our ears but do we even understand what listening is all about. Most of us just want to talk and not hear. The person who is in their own prison cell, it’s difficult for them to speak out in the first place. We need to be kinder to each other. We need to be there for each other. When I say each other, I don’t mean your entire WhatsApp contact list. I don’t mean anyone that you have just not met in years.”

“Everyone who is going through a struggle, remember, you are not alone. And trust me, it’s okay to be not okay. Don’t get affected by the fake sense of friendship. You just need one true friend, companion, sibling or teacher who is there to hear you. Just find that person,” he concluded.

Rithvik had attended Sushant’s funeral that was held on June 15 at Pawan Hans crematorium in Vile Parle.
