Prasoon says “suicide is a greater problem than murder”.
Prasoon Joshi, a writer, and CBFC chairman said that Suicide is an illness and a greater problem for him than murder.
His remarks come in the middle of the controversy regarding the death of actor Sushant Singh Rajput, which was ruled a suicide by the Mumbai Police and an AIIMS committee charged with re-evaluating the post-mortem study, prompting opposition from the family lawyer of the actor.
During an interview, Prasoon said that, like all industries, the film industry would look introspectively at why certain individuals are under such strain. On June 14, Sushant was found dead in his flat.
“According to our sources, He said,” Suicide is much more of a problem to me than homicide when you’ve got a culprit in the homicide. Suicide is a disorder that stems from the idea that something is wrong, that people feel insecure, that they can’t cope.
It’s not a tiny thing; it’s kind of a cancer diagnosis. It is a business that must be taken seriously. Not only is it about making a few hit movies, but life is bigger than movies.
There are a lot of touching bodies in the outdoor industry; the need to make them all join hands constructively.
He said, “Artists when they are responsive, should place life above commerce.” An artist is never going to prefer money to someone’s life. The spirit of an artist is welcoming. This is why people are frustrated.
A group of AIIMS doctors declared Sushant’s death case of hanging and demise by suicide’ on Saturday. The six-member team of forensic doctors stated in a study sent to the CBI on September 29 that ‘no injuries to the body rather than hanging’ or ‘presence of any seductive material’ were found, denying allegations of strangulation and poisoning.
According to our sources, Vikas Singh, the lawyer defending the father of Sushant, said that the study could not be regarded as definitive because the team did not directly investigate Sushant’s body but relied on photos.
The AIIMS investigation is not definitive, and the CBI can still file a murder the complaint in the death complaint of Sushant Singh Rajput in its charge sheet, “he said.”
