Sushant Singh Rajput’s death has unleashed a chain of discussion on social media and over the internet. While it had first began the dialogue on mental health all over again, it has now started a blame game on social media, with karan Johar at the centre. In fact, a case has been filed against the director and a few others like Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Ekta Kapoor at a court in Bihar. But some reports suggest that Sushant was far from being without work. In fact, he seems to have is slots booked till next year end.

According to a report in Pinkvilla, he had quite a few upcoming films. A source has been quoted saying, “Sushant had enough work to keep him busy till next year-end. He had signed two films and was in advanced talks for another three projects. People who are claiming he was out of work are completely wrong." 

In fact, it seems that he was supposed to collaborate with Aanand L. Rai. The source added, “Sushant was discussing a project with Aanand L Rai under his banner. The Ranjhanaa director loved Sushant's work in all his films and they had been wanting to collaborate for some time. When Aanand came across a script which perfectly suited Sushant, he had met him and narrated it to him. The actor loved the idea and had even verbally agreed to do it." The filmmaker was ‘distraught’ at the news of the actor’s sudden demise.

Well, he was to start work on a film with Rhea Chakraborty and filmmaker Rumi Jaffery has himself conformed the news. Reports suggest that he was to do two films with Anand Gandhi. He was also in talks for Bhaichung Bhutia’s biopic. His film with Mukesh Chhabra, Kizzy and Manny, was completed and was to release in May, but was postponed due to the lockdown.
