Everyone was stunned by the news of the suicide of Sushant Singh Rajput, the Bollywood actor who played a role of former India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni on the film screen. Sushant committed suicide at his home in Mumbai on 14 June. Dhoni, the legendary wicket-keeper batsman who made India the world champion under his captaincy, is also shocked and shattered by Sushant’s news.
Dhoni’s manager Arun Pandey told that the captain of IPL team Chennai Super Kings is also very sad. Although there was no statement from Dhoni on this news, but his close friend Arun Pandey gave this information.
In the year 2016, Sushant played the lead role in MS Dhoni: The Untold Story, a film based on Dhoni’s life. For this, former wicketkeeper Kiran More gave him special training.
The 38-year-old Dhoni’s close friend Arun Pandey told a private channel, “We can’t even believe what has happened. I am not in a position to express my grief. Mahi is also very morose. Such a tragic incident,” Pandey told ABP Ananda.

“Sushant was only 34 and a prosperous career was waiting for him, I have no doubt about that. There are ups and downs in everyone’s life. Sushant used to practice under the watchful eyes of former cricketer Kiran More who taught him how to keep wickets, which was very essential to play the role of Mahi,” he said.
“I still remember that Sushant had a bad side strain during practice and even there was a crack in his backbone. But he was confident, worked hard in rehabilitation and recovered within a week. Even Mahi was impressed to see his dedication to work.”
Actor Sushant, who achieved a special place in the Bollywood industry in a very short time, said goodbye to the world on Sunday. It is being said that he was undergoing treatment for depression for 6 months.
