Zuber Khan Who Plays Sushant Singh Rajput In Nyay Reacts To Criticism Says, “I Know Him More Personally Than You Guys"

Nyay: The Justice, a film based on the life of actor Sushant Singh Rajput whose death shocked the nation last year, has recently come under a lot of criticism. The movie’s teaser released recently and sheds light on the investigation that followed the actor’s death.

Fans of Sushant who have been demanding justice for his death for several months now were enraged on seeing the teaser which claims that the actor committed suicide and wondered if the makers even bothered taking the family’s permission before making the film.

Actor Zuber Khan who plays Sushant Singh Rajput in Nyay: The Justice has opened up about all the criticism the film has been facing. Talking to Times Now he said that since he’s an actor the only way he could see he can pay a tribute to the late actor is through the movie.

Zuber said that he knew the late actor personally and while filming he could hear the actor’s voice, “I know him more personally than you guys. More than how much you guys are connected to him, I more connected to him. When I was shooting, I was getting echoes of his voice, when he used to tell me everything. I have gone through that phase. I think people are right, their sentiments are connected but at the same time, I am also connected and I have to give tribute to him by my own acting, which I did and trying to do.”

“I never thought whether people will love it or not, I wanted to give him a tribute by my acting, which I did. That's my personal motive, my personal agenda and that's why I wanted to do this film,” he added.

Sushant Singh Rajput’s sister Priyanka recently took to Twitter and without naming the movie called out people for invading the family’s privacy without consent and called all such attempts a “misappropriation of name of our beloved Sushant” which is “most unflattering and unfitting”.

She further threatened to take legal action against such perpetrators.
