{{/usCountry}}Chhichhore was a critical and commercial success, with domestic earnings of more than ₹100 crore. The Hindustan Times review called it ‘a relevant film with a rather important message conveyed through an engaging narrative’.
On the first anniversary of the release of Chhichhore in September last year, Shraddha, Nitesh and the team of the film remembered Sushant and paid tribute to him with an emotional video.
Sushant died on June 14 last year. While his death was ruled as a suicide after an initial probe by the Mumbai Police, the investigation has now been taken over by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI). The Enforcement Directorate (ED) and Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) are looking into the money laundering and drug angles of the case, respectively.
