Rumy was asked about Sushant’s mental health and the details about the film that he was planning to make. He has been further quoted by the portal as saying, “From the romcom I was planning with Sushant to his mental health, the police questioned me about everything. I had all details and dates in place about the first time that I met Sushant, when and where we had the narration of the script and more such information. They asked me everything — how the project was planned, who was producing it, how many times we met and discussed the project and whether the meetings happened at my home or at Sushant’s place. I was also asked about his mental health. I spoke truthfully about whatever I knew. I expected I’d be called anytime as I was doing a film with him. Agar sab theek hota toh yeh film floor pe hoti. I am happy that the police is doing a thorough investigation.”

Earlier, in an interview, Rumy had revealed Sushant was extremely pepped up about the project, he was quoted by the same portal as saying, “He was excited and kept telling me to begin workshops and rehearsals soon.” 

The director had also revealed that Sushant had spoken to him about his depression which is why he refrained from talking about it in front of him and that whenever he used to feel depressed, either he would invite Sushant over to his place or would himself go over to meet him.
