Mumbai: The Bombay High Court, on Thursday praised late actor Sushant Singh Rajput’s work in the film “MS Dhoni: The Untold Story” and said that one could make out from the actor’s face that he was a good human being.
The remarks were made by a bench of Justices S S Shinde and M S Karnik while reserving its verdict on a petition filed by Sushant Singh Rajput’s sisters – Priyanka Singh and Meetu Singh- seeking to quash an FIR for alleged forgery and fabrication of a medical prescription for their brother.
“Whatever the case…from Sushant Singh Rajput’s face one could make out that he was innocent and sober…and a good human being,” Justice Shinde said.
“Everybody liked him especially in that M S Dhoni film,” the judge added.
The FIR was lodged against Priyanka Singh, Meetu Singh and doctor Tarun Kumar of Delhi’s Ram Manohar Lohia hospital by the suburban Bandra police on September 7 based on a complaint by Sushant Singh Rajput’s girlfriend Rhea Chakraborty.
