your right. But I think his issue was not the audience liking or not liking him, he was just not getting work that he liked, didn’t get hype from media and didn’t get applaud. I can only compare it to interview, imagine being on interviews for years because that’s exactly what was happening to him, he kept calling people for work and as soon as he got a huge hit, rumor said they dropped him from 7 movies. He should’ve developed thick skin and continue his work. He said he was not getting offers he liked. I remember I had a job that was a negative environment because coworkers would report me, talk behind my work but they were jealous I was getting awards for being best employee of the quarter, perfect attendance and other awards. I quit the job because negativity messes up with my mind even though I considered myself as a strong person. Sushant probably had people who were jealous of him ruining his image. He has to work with the same people
I don't know what his issues were but what I do know that if he was suffering from depression than a lot has to with the disease that affected him than the actual problems. Like u said he should have developed a thick skin maybe he could have without depression but with it I know it gets extremely difficult no matter how hard u try. Which is why treating the disease is so important cause it plays with ur mind.You know how anxiety makes a problem looks much bigger than what it truly is, so i can't even imagine what depression might do to someone.
Few days ago I was thinking about him and Ayushmann. How both are outsiders started with the same PH and how things turned differently for both. I m sure if Sushant wasn't treated well Ayushmann wasn't doing any better. But Sushant left while Ayushmann stayed with YRF. Sushant and Ayushmann both achieved success but if its true that Sushant was cornered by the industry cause of his success then I do feel staying with Ayushmann benefitted him to have their backing. He didn't get cornered or boycotted. Ayushmann took extremely calculative steps in this regard and had immense patience which Sushant didn''t have. He didn't have the ability to ignore the wrong that was done to him but Ayushmann ignored it completely. In industries like this you have to be very smart about your moves, talent alone can't make u survive this shit. I have seen this in my personal life, its always the smart ones who benefit more than the talented ones.
Its good u quit , sometimes u really can't take so much of negativity on a daily basis eventually it starts hampering ur work. It take a lot to figure out how to handle this. I still haven't been able to figure it out myself but then I do have good people around too so they help me cope with the bad ones. Touchwood.
