Rhea Chakraborty’s brother Showik REACTS to clean chit in Sushant Singh Rajput case: “Satyameva Jayate” March 23, 2025 at 06:06PM

The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has officially given actress Rhea Chakraborty, her brother Showik Chakraborty, and their family members a clean chit in the high-profile Sushant Singh Rajput death case. The CBI’s closure report, submitted after four years of investigation, concluded that there was no evidence of foul play in the tragic demise of the late actor, who was found dead in his Mumbai apartment in June 2020 at the age of 34. The news has relieved the Chakraborty family, who have endured intense scrutiny and legal battles since the incident.

Showik Chakraborty Speaks Out Breaking his silence for the first time since the CBI’s decision, Showik Chakraborty took to Instagram on Saturday evening to express his emotions. Posting an old video featuring himself and his sister Rhea, Showik captioned it with the poignant phrase "Satyameva Jayate" – meaning "Truth alone triumphs" – accompanied by a folded hands emoji. Meanwhile, Rhea Chakraborty has yet to make an official statement.

The road to this moment has been tumultuous for the Chakraborty family. Following Sushant Singh Rajput’s death, Rhea and Showik found themselves at the center of multiple investigations. In September 2020, the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) arrested the siblings in a drugs-related case linked to Rajput’s death. Rhea spent 27 days in judicial custody before being granted bail, while Showik faced a longer period of incarceration.

Rhea Chakraborty’s Lawyer’s Statement Rhea’s lawyer, Satish Maneshinde, addressed the CBI’s closure of the case in a statement that shed light on the harrowing experiences endured by his client and her family. “Rhea was jailed for 27 days despite no fault of her own. I salute her and her family for having kept silent and yet suffered the inhuman treatment they were meted out,” Maneshinde said. He revealed that the case came to him through close friends, including defense personnel with whom he studied at Sainik School, and lauded the resilience of Rhea’s family and his legal team in the face of adversity. “Both Rhea’s family, my team, and I were hounded and threatened with danger to our lives. I must say nothing deterred us from carrying out our legal duties,” he added.

The CBI’s decision marks the end of a nearly five-year-long saga that gripped the nation, sparked debates about mental health, justice, and media trials, and left an indelible mark on those involved.

Bombay High Court orders stays the release of Hamare Baarah, two days before the film’s release June 07, 2024 at 01:02PM

Hamare Baarah, which is making news for its bold approach and thought-provoking plotline, has been mired in controversy, with the makers landing in deep trouble. The highly anticipated release of Annu Kapoor, Manoj Joshi, and Paritosh Tripathi starrer, has encountered a significant setback as the Bombay High Court has issued a stay on its release just two days before its scheduled release on June 7, extending the hold until June 14. This unexpected turn of events has impacted the premiere of the film which was expected to be held this week, leaving makers in an uncertain dilemma. The legal obstacle arises from a petition filed by activists from a specific religious community at the Mumbai High Court, opposing the film's release. Producers Birender Bhagat and Ravi S Gupta have raised serious concerns regarding the imposition of the stay, especially given that the film had already obtained a censor certificate. In a recent statement given to NDTV, Mr Bhagat explained their predicame...
