Sushant Singh Rajput's First Psychiatrist Harish Shetty Says SSR Visited Him In 2014: 'He Told Me He Was Suffering From Sleeplessness And Insomnia'
In Sushant Singh Rajput's death case, Rhea Chakraborty has been under the scanner ever since his family filed an FIR against the actress. Amidst all this, recently, Rhea gave a tell-all interview to India Today where she also disclosed that Sushant Singh Rajput was in touch with Dr Harish Shetty in 2013 and revealed that the doctor had prescribed Sushant a medicine called Modafinil for his anxiety. Speaking of which, India Today recently revealed that they have access to the statement of Rajput's very first Psychiatrist to the Mumbai police where he revealed that he visited him for sleeplessness and insomnia, for which, he even prescribed some medicines but he didn't show up for a follow-up session. 

India Today shared the statement of Dr Harish Shetty which read, "In 2014, Sushant Singh Rajput visited my clinic in Andheri. He did not have any prior appointment to see me. Sushant then told me that he couldn't provide all the details of his ailment then and if needed he will come and see me again. He told me that he was suffering from sleeplessness and insomnia. So, I screened and examined Sushant and didn't find any serious issues then. For sleeplessness and insomnia, I prescribed some medication and gave him a future date for an appointment."

However, the doctor added that Sushant Singh Rajput didn't visit him after that. "He didn't come on the next date and never communicated after that for treatment," he said.

Earlier, when Rhea revealed the doctor's name in the interview, filmmaker Vivek Agnihotri and Soumyadipta shared tweets and called out on Rhea for her unprofessional and unethical behaviour. They even mentioned how Dr Shetty never diagnosed Sushant for any kind of phobia and mental illness. Seeing these tweets, Harish Shetty retweeted those tweets, making it clear that he was disappointed with disclosure of the name.
