    Filmmaker Abhishek Kapoor who worked with Sushant Singh Rajput in ‘Kai Po Che’ & ‘Kedarnath’ said that “He was very troubled while we were shooting for Kedarnath, But when we shot, he was 100% there. He never threw tantrum, it was cold, he had to carry Sara on his back, and he never said no if I asked for retakes. I couldn’t pay much attention to him during the shoot, but I knew we would reconnect if he wanted to.”. Abhishek further added “There were times, you talk and then you’d go away to do a film. He must have changed his number 50 times and I remember when Kedarnath was coming out, the media had just slammed it. I don’t know what happened, he could see that he was not getting the kind of love because everything was centered around Sara at that time. He was just kind of lost. When the film released and it did really well, I sent him a message.”
