Sushant Singh Rajput's death on June 14, 2020 put everyone in a state of shock. His sudden demise reportedly due to suicide shook everyone in the industry. From his friends, family and fans, everyone mourned his death. Now, director Kushal Zaveri who worked with Sushant Singh Rajput in his debut show Pavitra Rishta has spoken about the actor's demise and more. In the interview, he shared what a prolific actor Sushant Singh Rajput was as he managed to shoot with real people.
To Bollywoodlife.com, Kushal Zaveri stated that he has so many memories with Sushant Singh Rajput that he can write a book. He mentioned SSR and him doing candid shots using hidden cameras at locations where they did not have permission to shoot. Describing a scene from Pavitra Rishta, Kushal said, "He (SSR) would go randomly with Archana's picture and ask people about her. Now, Sushant had become very famous as Manav and people would identify him. He was so smart that he would show the picture and move to the second person in two seconds flat. So, before people realised what was happening, or that he was Manav, you got the reactions you wanted. So, he was an actor with a very rare presence of mind."
Further, Kushal Zaveri stated that he and all SSR's friends could not get a closure post the actor's demise. In the interview, Kushal revealed that he spoke to Sushant Singh Rajput on June 9 and could not get a hint that the actor was going through a tough time. He was quoted saying by the portal, "When this news came, it was a sudden shock. We could not believe it. You do not get closure. You have to know that it is not in our control. We will never get closure on why did he take such a step or if he did not do it, what exactly happened to him. It will stay with a question mark. He was always fine. We chatted on June 9 and made plans to meet up. He said that we would work on projects. I had no idea of what he was going through, there was not the slightest of hint that he was troubled."
