The police interviewed Aashish Singh, former Vice President, Production at YRF. According to him, “Sushant did not break the contract. He parted ways on an amicable note. We stayed in touch though. This was 5 years back. The cops called me as they wanted to know about the YRF contract of the actor. There was no internal rift between Sushant and the company.”, ZEE News reported.

Singh Rajput’s last film ‘Dil Bechara’ will release on 24th July on Disney+ Hotstar.
