Very random, but wanted to post this somewhere..
I remember watching the 2016 round table with Sushant, Ranbir, Diljeet, AB and Shahid..and I felt Sushant was being sidelined. For some reason, I thought of the round table again yesterday and forwarded to Sushant's parts within that video, and noticed how no one was really acknowledging him. Ranbir for some reason seemed to show complete disinterest in anything Sushant said - and watching it now, he seemed batshit rude at some points. I noticed this then but it just hits differently re-watching it today. There was only one comment where AB asked Sushant how he hit the last shot in the film, Dhoni..to which Sushant excitedly said he watched Dhoni's clip of it 100x. Otherwise, NONE of the others even faked showing any interest in Sushant's film or body of work. Sushant on the other hand was trying his best to stay positive.
He also made this one comment about how he doesn't like pretentious people and suddenly looked to his left at Ranbir, who was slouching on his chair barely showing interest. Point is...if his peers can't even fake interest on national tv for a fellow peer sitting right next to them, can't imagine what their behavior was off-screen. I do believe this fraternity did not treat him right. I do believe they tried taking advantage of how he was "different." I wasn't a Sushant fan, but I have been really disturbed by this since the news broke. RIP Sushant.
