Mahesh, who worked with Sushant and Ankita in Pavitra Rishta, has quietly supported Sushant’s family’s claims on the death of the actor. The actor’s father in July had filed an FIR in Patna accusing Rhea Chakraborty, Sushant’s girlfriend, and her family of abetment to suicide, siphoning off funds and keeping the actor away from his family. After days of silence, Rhea had given an interview to new channels to give her side of the story and refuted all claims. around that time, Mahesh had put out a cryptic message and written: “People who are here can defend themselves and eventually the truth will prevail. But let’s not lose our dignity and defame the departed.”
Earlier this month, Rhea and her brother Showik Chakraborty were arrested by Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) over charges of procuring drugs for the late actor. In separate cases, Enforcement Directorate and Central Bureau of Investigation are probing the case.
