Late actor Sushant Singh Rajput's roommate and friend Siddharth Pithani said, the Kedarnath actor was very upset after his name was associated with the alleged suicide of his former manager, Disha Salian. Pithani in his interview to Zoom said, Disha had managed Sushant only for a short time, and yet she was described as ‘Sushant Singh Rajput’s former manager’ in news articles. “He met her only once in his life,” Siddharth said. “She was Sushant’s manager for only a very small time.” Siddharth added that Sushant kept crying the day he learned of Disha’s death. “His sister was there to take of him that time. She fed him, gave him water. His sister came over the day Rhea left. The following day this incident happened, and that affected him so much. He fainted also. His sister and me were in the same room. We all saw how badly it affected him.”Siddharth said that he slept in Sushant’s room that night, and went to his own room only after the actor had fallen asleep.
Siddharth also confirmed that Sushant was taking medication for depression, and that the actor had made it Siddharth’s responsibility to ensure that he takes his medicines. Siddharth also recalled how the actor had told him to move in with him, and had emotionally said that he doesn’t have anyone. “Sushant said, ‘I have no one. We will go away from all this. We will go to Pavna’,” Siddharth said. Meanwhile, the actor had searched on Google three items repeatedly in the week preceding his suicide: his own name in news reports, the name of his former manager Disha Salian. These details have emerged from forensic reports of his mobile phone and laptop. For the unversed, Sushant died by suicide on June 14, less than a week after Disha fell to her death from a high rise building on June 8.
