Child actor Varun Buddhadev, who has worked with the late actor Sushant Singh Rajput in Kedarnath, still can’t believe that he has left for the heavenly abode. “Padhai acche se karna, padhai zaruri hai,” Sushant used to tell Varun all the time.
Varun recalls the late actor as an amazing and caring person. They both shot for a rain sequence in the movie and after every shot, Sushant used to call for warm clothes and hot milk for him. Sushant also used to help Varun with his scenes and made the atmosphere friendly for the kid so that he is comfortable. “Bhagwan unki aatma ko shanti de,” said Varun in a trembling voice, almost crying. Sushant’s Pavitra Rishta co-star Rithvik Dhanjani said, “It’s funny how suddenly people have realised that they are going to be there for others. Aise zameer kaise jaag gaya? I too have been getting these messages which I don’t need and the one who needed it didn’t have it. Somewhere we are all culprits that we could not be there when we could have been.”
His message for those going through a tough time is, “You are not alone and trust me, it’s okay to not be okay. Do not get affected by the fake sense of friendship. You just need one true friend, companion, sibling or teacher who is there to listen to you without judgement. Just find that person.”
