Actor Sushant Singh Rajput’s sudden demise has sparked a debate in Cinema industry, whether outsiders are treated fairly or not? Filmmaker Hansal Mehta took to his social media profile and wrote a stunning message for “newcomers from outside” urging them to beware of the traps of Bollywood.
The filmmaker Hansal Mehta took Twitter to share a word of advice with a string of posts.
“There are many young ”outsiders” in this industry. Remember this — there is an establishment that will make you feel like the next big thing until they need you. They will drop you and mock you as soon as you falter. Do not fall for the trap,” he wrote.
“The ones that celebrate you will celebrate your downfall some time later. Success and failure are transient. You are not. Just be authentic, follow your heart and stop seeking acceptance from anybody. Your connection should be with your art, your craft and with your audience. Nothing else matters,” added the “Aligarh” maker.
The director continued: “Over the years you will succeed, you will stumble. But remember that nothing is more important than you. Look after yourself. And know that you matter. The world is much bigger and wiser than what you perceive. So are opportunities. If you stay they will be yours. Lots of love. Never lose heart.”
Sushant was found hanging in his Bandra residence on Sunday morning by his domestic help. He was reportedly battling depression over the past few months and undergoing treatment for the same.
Meanwhile on the work front, Hansal Mehta’s next directorial venture is titled Chhalaang, an upcoming social black comedy starring Rajkummar Rao and Nushrat Bharucha.
It is produced by Ajay Devgn, Luv Ranjan, Ankur Garg and Bhushan Kumar. The plot is set in a small town of Uttar Pradesh.
