Sandip Singh opens up on relationship with Sushant Singh Rajput, makes WhatsApp exchanges public
Film producer Sandip Singh has finally resolved to reveal his version of the story after doubts were raised on his relationship with the late actor Sushant Singh Rajput. Acting in response to the speculation, which includes the actor’s family’s claim that they did not know him, he has made WhatsApp chats with Sushant and his family open to the public.
Sharing personal chats with the late actor, he wrote, “Sorry bhai, my silence has broken 20 years of my image and family into pieces. I was unaware that friendship requires a certificate in today’s time. Today I am making our personal chats public, as this is the last resort which proves our equation. #sushantsinghrajput #sandipssingh.” The texts he has shared are from 2016 till 2018.
Furthermore, Sandeep elucidated his presence at Sushant’s residence soon after the actors demise. “On 14th June when I heard about you I was unable to stop myself and I rushed to your house in grief but was shocked to see no one present except Mittu Didi. I am still thinking whether I was wrong to stand by your sister in that critical time or I should have waited for your other friends to come,” he wrote. He then shared screenshots of his chats with Meetu Singh.
Earlier, Sushant’s family had said that they didn’t know who Sandeep was, “Everyone is saying that your family does not know me. Yes, its correct, I never met your family. Is it my fault to help a grieving sister alone in this city to complete the final rites of a brother ? Just want to end the speculation why I was talking to the ambulance driver despite his statement,” he said. The chats contain Meetu asking Sandeep about Sushant’s death certificate and if the payments of ambulance were made. Earlier, several reports had questioned why Sandip called the ambulance driver after June 14. The chats show that it was to clear their payments.
The film producer also shared a certificate to straighten things down that a case against him was pending in Mauritius.
Earlier, Sushant’s family lawyer had claimed that Sandip was not known to them, “Meetu (Sushant’s sister) was devastated after seeing Sushant’s body so she went and she was lying down in the room so he just saw an opportunity and he took charge. Nobody in the family knows him, how did he come there. Suddenly how did he start taking charge. Since nobody from the family was there, there was an opening for him. I guess it should have been Pithani (Siddharth, Sushant’s flatmate) who should have been there and not Sandip.”
