Bollywood actor Vivek Oberoi was among the celebrities who attended Sushant Singh Rajput’s funeral, which took place in Mumbai on Monday. After paying his last respects to the 34-year-old actor, Vivek took to Twitter to share how attending the funeral was “heartbreaking.”
The actor wrote a heartfelt note, suggesting Sushant’s untimely demise is a wake-up call for everyone.
He mentioned how the industry needs to introspect and become a place “where an artist feels appreciated and not manipulated.”
“When I saw his father today, having to light the fire at the cremation, the pain in his eyes was unbearable, when I heard his sister weeping, begging him to come back, I can’t express how deeply tragic it felt.
I hope our industry that calls itself a family, does some serious introspection, we need to change for the better, we need to b***h less and care more, less power play and more grace and large heartedness, less ego trips and more acknowledgement for deserving talents, this family needs to truly become a family…a place where talent is nurtured and not crushed, a place where an artist feels appreciated and not manipulated,” he wrote.
