In 2017, Sushant criticized the notion of being free from the mental and
emotional struggle of believing actors because of their fame, wealth, and
success.
'Who says actors can easily maintain their mental health? The most
important thing an actor can do to protect himself from all these (stress,
demands, paparazzi) is to know what they are doing. It doesn't matter what
you like, whether it's money, fame or competition. Just make sure you know
your reasons.'
Now Bollywood and Pakistani celebrities are using their social media
platforms to raise awareness about mental health. Sushant's death sparked
a much-needed conversation that has been the subject of repeated negative
news these days.
'If someone has fame and money, it doesn't mean they are happiest! One in
four people in the world is affected by mental or emotional issues at some
point in their life,' Amna Ilyas said on Twitter. 'Please take care
of the people around you. #ShoshantSinghRajput #RIP'
As actress Maura Hooken writes, 'It is so important for all of us to be kind, to be compassionate, to be
polite. We all have a role to play in each other’s lives. Let’s all have
a big heart for one another. Let’s please be kind. Rest in peace,
Sushant Singh Rajput.'
Mahira Khan emphasized this and gave voice to those who think that being
straight-up is cool. 'Why have we made it cool to be straight-up? That
isn’t honesty it is downright apathy! Be kind and proud. Wear it like a
badge. Be kind. Be kind. Be kind. There is much more to people than they
show. Be kind!' said the actress.
On the other hand, Zara Noor Abbas explained why many people avoid opening up, and thus they are judged by society. 'People keep things to themselves, thrown by what others will interpret them as. That fear is what makes them sulk deeper into the darkness. So before you judge
someone, stop and think about the inner battle they are constantly
fighting.'
Hamza Ali Abbasi also appealed to everyone to 'be gentle with others,
their families, the weak, the poor.' He then asked everyone to be honest and make sure that others were safe from his actions and words. 'Give
alms. know that real life is about to begin after the transition we call death. All peace is from God,' he said.

can help better with better performance. It will get better' he said.
He went on to say, 'Someone's traumatic event may seem dramatic to you,
but they are going through it.' Usman went on to say that with the stigma of mental health, we have to deal with it ourselves. , Dismissal, and suppression conditions.
He said that there was a culture here which not only accepted poisoning and immorality but also encouraged its activity. But because the person who is personally affected by the apathy and outright dism rejection of depression 'listen if someone reaches out to you,' he said.
Actress Anushi Ashraf also mourned Sushant's death with a message of public service. 'There is nothing worse than being killed because of depression. Unable to understand the issues related to mental health and
even though some people think that it is an easy way, still imagine the
torment in one's mind to take this step.' she wrote
