Sanjay Gupta has made the most of the lockdown period. He’s been working on multiple projects out of his Khandala house far from Mumbai city. Sanjay, is known for his unique aesthetics and style when it comes to filmmaking. His next offering ‘Mumbai Saga’ stars his favourite actors Emraan Hashmi and John Abraham. Besides this he’s also working on the script of the next film in the ‘Shootout’ series and also writing a vigilante superhero film called ‘Rakshak’.
In an exclusive chat with ETimes, Sanjay spoke about Sushant Singh Rajput, where he said, Sushant was a star! He wasn’t some ladder climbing actor
They welcomed me. I am also an outsider, I don’t have a family in the business. They have just made too much of an issue of this insider-outsider thing which is complete nonsense. It has been welcoming and there have hardly been any instances where everyone has ganged up and said let’s teach this guy a lesson or make him sit at home. Nobody does that. Right up to his death, may God bless his soul but he was getting film offers but he was not doing it and that was his choice. It was not that he was shunned. He was a star. Sushant Singh Rajput was not someone, who was climbing the ladder actor, he could sell films on his name. He was a bankable star but what has happened is truly disgusting. Leave the boy and his family alone. We don’t need that spectacle on national television every day and you are right, there’s someone new coming out every day and discussing new. Who are these people and how do they matter? Where were they when Sushant was there and now they are coming out and speaking. Everyone’s looking at it from their point of view, their own perspective and how does it benefit their perspective. I don’t think, it’s out of any love for Sushant that they are coming forward and giving their views. Everyone’s washing their hands in it.
