This man, Shekhar Kapoor, is being such a coward and hypothetical. Sushant trusted him, shared his pain with him. For God's sake he was killed eventually. Even if this brutal exploitation and murder is not enough to bring Shekhar out of his cowardly shell than he is a blot on the name of friendship.
And no, it's not the system. No system, no matter how corrupt or broken, gives permission to hound and wound a member of your fraternity. Sushant was targeted beyond the scope of normal and average bitchy gossip of any industry or workplace. He was deliberately surrounded by negativity and hatred by these people. He was turned into a punching bag by those vicious gossip mongers like Kjo, kareena etc.
It was not system and its requirement, it was sheer hostility against a man whose sparkle made them vicious and their refusal to accept him among them was extreme ostrcization.
Shekhar Kapoor himself has a lot of skeleton in his closets. He had an affair with Preity Zinta that broke his home with Suchitra Krishnamurty. Preity and her love for coke is an open secret in Bollywood.
Also, more than the ones coming from filmy family, I find the silence of outsiders, who have made it big, more surprising be it Akshay Kumar, Deepika Padukone or Katrina Kaif and so on..
Akshay had serious grouses with SSR. He wanted to replace him in Dhoni-biopic, didn't happen. The latest rumor of him having hands in stealing SSR's patent could be true. He is close to Thackreys.
Deepika Padukone who tweeted that insensitive "repeat after me" less than an hour after SSR's depression narrative is now silent like a lamb. She was sighted in K Jo's viral party video. Her husband also is rumored to be "high" all the time.
Even Priyanka Chopra who it seems has no plan of returning to B'wood anytime soon is mum about the whole thing.
I used to like Vidya Balan a lot. But now even she has come across as hypocritical. For the one who went around giving interviews as to how she could not get proper work for years after Parineeta, went to label B'wood as a fair place. When the investigation has moved into another direction, she has no words to spare for prevalence of truth and justice.
Where is Tapsi and Bhumi?? Or Nawaz or Rajkumar Rao???
The silence of these outsiders are more deafening that the cacophony of Swara, Bhatts, Kashyap or those barking "media-trials"...
