Rhea and her bro aside, even the two house staff said the same thing. After all, he was their boss and his request of picking up the weed was command. Even based on the chats, Rhea was trying to get weed for him.

He was smart enough not to pick up his own weed himself. But he left everyone who helped in such a mess now.

I don't know why people keep saying he is dead so he cannot defend himself blablabla. If he was alive and they caught a link, he would have been done and same people would have said, We knew it!

Caught for doing something almost everyone does? Lol he was scared to pick his weed himself 😂, its not as if he was smuggling or trading weapons or meth.

Only in one chat I saw Sushant's name being mentioned otherwise it's all about them discussing types of weed.The way y'all describe it sound like Sushant was holding all of them hostages and sitting in his chair like a king with a joint in his hand while he orders them to get some more weed. Reha and her bro were the one with connections so why is it so hard to believe that they did it too and were using his money to procure it for him as well as themselves.

Weed is considered medicinal not a drug like cocaine. It helps people with stress, depression and anxiety. If he was taking it because he felt better with it then why not they help him out? I see nothing wrong in it.


Aap jo keh rahe ho bilkul sahi hoga , leki we have to wait 4 what final outcome .

Agree with the mental health part

Disagree with the misogyny part in this particular case.People didnt gang up and attack Rhea immediately after Sushant's demise.Investigations are carried on based on the FIR filed by his family,not somewhere out of the blue.Pithani,Showik,Deepesh were all equally bashed.

Also if there is vilification of Rhea,there is mudslinging against Sushant and his family too.Infact most of the print articles are in favour of Rhea.There are people supporting Rhea.Almost all of bollywood is supporting her so its not that she is devoid of support.Though I agree with you that the abusive rape threats should stop.

About media trial,though the media might have gone a bit overboard ,all this coverage started only when the family filed an FIR.And cant deny that media pressure and campaign played a huge role here in bringing the CBI investigations.Also channels like Aaj Tak and NDTV have provided Rhea a platform to speak for herself.

Towards the end it all depends on the investigation agencies findings and conclusions.

Calling members uneducated just because they share a different opinion is fine? Wow!

And I guess it's your ass on fire looking at the kind of replies you are giving to people

Media trials always happen in such high profile cases. Nobody waits for judge or jury to give their decision. Those who have accepted the accused as guilty or innocent based on their interpretation of facts, they would see them the same way no matter what the court's verdict says. This has nothing to do with misogyny.

News channels and media will always run circus by giving sensational headlines and presenting rumours as facts because that's what attracts audience and they like any other channel, run on TRP. Like the nepotism defenders say, it's their choice, but if you don't like it, don't watch it.

That wouldn't have happened. What I wish other women understood was that the violent treatment of Rhea impacts all women in public, as well as private spheres – women who are blamed for the failures and even the death of the men in their lives; women who “should have seen” the signs of illness – whether mental or physical. Women, whose identities are so easily narrowed down ‘gold-digger’ and ‘manipulative’ – because apparently it’s harder to believe that a woman could love someone without wanting something in return.

Rhea and her bro have been found to have been dealing synthetic drugs. That is why they are in jail.

Write ups like these which give a clean chit to Rhea already even before CBI has even completed its investigation , how different are they from the ones they accuse of declaring the judgement against Rhea?? 😆

mhonestly till the verdict is given everyone should just mind their own business.people both sides dont know the real truth bcz ofcourse cbi wont reveal anything like this to media.let us wait n watch.Both sides just making up theories and bashing each other and what not.And yes both the facts can be true Rhea can be guilty and the audience still can be misogynistic in the way they reacted before being sure she is guilty. One doesnt have to be true for the other to be false.
