The news of Sushant Singh Rajput’s death has been difficult to process. Earlier in the day, Shah Rukh Khan shared a throwback photograph with Sushant Singh Rajput and said that he will miss the 34-year-old actor.
“He loved me so much…I will miss him so much. His energy, enthusiasm and his full happy smile. May Allah bless his soul and my condolences to his near and dear ones. This is extremely sad….and so shocking (sic),” Shah Rukh tweeted. From the looks of it, the photograph was clicked at the time when Sushant was prepping for his role in MS Dhoni: The Untold Story, in 2016.
