Various people who have been associated with Sushant Singh Rajput at some point in time - whether his family, friends, co-workers, househelp - were all called for questioning by Mumbai Police. Rhea Chakraborty, Aditya Chopra, Shanoo Sharma, Sanjana Sanghi, Mukesh Chhabra, Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Rumi Jafery have recorded their statement with the police.

Kangana, who had gone on record to talk about bullying and gangeism in Bollywood, was the last to receive a summon from the Police. Since she is quarantining in Manali, the actor, through her lawyer, requested assistance in recording the statement from there itself.
