Meanwhile, Abhishek also penned a heartfelt note for Sushant. “I am shocked and deeply saddened by the loss of my friend. We made two very special films together. He was a generous and fabulous actor, who worked very hard to breathe life into his characters. I pray for his family, whose loss is unmeasurable. He was a huge science buff and consumed by what lay beyond in the universe. I’m going to miss you brother. Stay interstellar,” he wrote in an Instagram post.
After collaborating together on Kai Po Che!, Abhishek directed Sushant in the 2018 disaster drama Kedarnath, which marked the Bollywood debut of Sara Ali Khan.
