Sushant Singh Rajput's suicide has shattered many myths in Bollywood. The actor, though successful had his own battles to fight and his internal pain became excruciating since the past six months. Sources close to him insist the actor was suffering from clinical depression but had stopped taking his anti-depressant pills. And while B-town folks are offering their condolences to his departed soul, netizens are busy slamming them for pushing him to the edge. Mumbai police had earlier launched an investigation into his suicide but recent development suggests they will also look into professional rivalry angle.

According to many reports, Sushant never felt welcomed in the industry and often complained about how isolated he felt. Despite delivering hits in MS Dhoni biopic and Chhichhore, the actor wasn't really a part of "any camp" and the outsider tag haunted him to the core. Apparently, the same professional rivalry was a major reason behind his depression and cops will also investigate this angle.
Maharashtra Home Minister, Anil Deshmukh took to his Twitter account to give an update on the official probe and how officers will also look into the new alleged angle.
