Pooja Bhatt is bemused by the conspiracy theories on Bollywood.

Producer Tanujj Garg and filmmaker Pooja Bhatt have responded to speculation about the film industry, particularly around on nepotism and the perceived injustice suffered by outsiders in Bollywood, after the untimely death of actor Sushant Singh Rajput. Taking to Twitter, Tanujj wrote that he was ‘tired’ of the speculation by ‘idle outsiders’ who were pretending to know everything about the workings of the film industry.

“Am I the only one tired of reading silly conspiracy theories by idle outsiders with ample time on hand, masquerading as authorities on the film industry?,” he wrote on Twitter.

Responding to his tweet, Pooja said that she was ‘bemused’ by the ‘sheer obsession’ of these people. “You’re tired. I am bemused. Not only by their authority but also by their sheer obsession,” she wrote. There has been a social media outrage with many holding the ‘Bollywood privilege club’ responsible for isolating Sushant. Others have urged people to ‘celebrate’ the actor’s life instead of indulging in such analysis and name calling.

Earlier, in an Instagram live, Sushant’s Sonchiriya co-star Manoj Bajpayee expressed unhappiness about the analysis of his death. “When I see the cacophony around me and people trying to find the reason behind the suicide...everyone has their own theory and we are not talking about the contribution that he has made at such a young age, the journey that he took and where he reached...it is leaving a very bad taste in my mouth. Why can’t we celebrate the person that he was?,” he asked.

More recently, Sushant’s MS Dhoni: The Untold Story co-star Bhumika Chawla urged everyone to stop speculating. “Dear Sushant - wherever you are - you are in the hands of God .... it’s Been a week since you have gone ... What took you away —- THE SECRET HAS GONE WITH YOU — buried deep in your heart and mind,” she wrote.

“There are speculations of why it happened .... THERE IS MUD SLINGING - there is wrath - there is — ‘who is to be blamed’ —— there is ‘industry did it’ —- ‘relationship did this’ ... so on and so forth .... Dear PEOPLE RESPECT A SOUL GONE ... PRAY AND LOOK AHEAD,” she added.

When did any outsider actor come up with any conspiracy theory?

By outsider she means people who are not a part of the industry – not industry outsiders. Stop hating lol.

even we are tired of your overdose of nepotism and bemused of your sheer obsession to kill someone's career just cause he was an outsider........what authority does your colleagues have to feel they are entitled to the industry and they decide who stays and who leaves.........

but all said and done........best reply would be to boycott your nepo crap, unless and until you be fair towards real talent and promote actors just on the basis of their talent and real stardom.......

Reading this shit in every nepo defender tweet. Where and when did all this fuckall logic start that we need to be quiet and pray to respect the soul? Like who do I pray to I don’t even believe in God. And how is being quiet the only way to respect the supposed unseen unheard unverified “soul”?

She and Muzammil used to date right?
