Actor Rhea Chakraborty- a close friend of Sushant Singh Rajput- had on Thursday requested Home Minister Amit Shah to order the CBI to investigate the case. Tagging Mr Shah in a post on Instagram, Rhea Chakraborty said that she "only wanted to understand what prompted him to take the step".
Maharashtra Home Minister Anil Deshmukh, however, has ruled out his government is considering to request for a CBI probe in the case. "There was no need to give the case to the CBI. Our police officials are capable and doing the inquiry in right way. We are also examining the angle of business rivalry," Mr Deshmukh said.
Sushant Singh Rajput debuted in the 2013 film 'Kai Po Che' and went on to do several films, including 'PK', 'Kedarnath', 'Sonchiriya' and 'Chhichhore' - one of his last films that was widely appreciated. His death led to a deluge of tribute and recriminations on social media involving the Hindi film industry, which has been battling allegations of nepotism and cliques.
