Chandigarh, September 1
Several WhatsApp texts have surfaced between Sushant Singh Rajput and one of his sisters that indicate that the late actor’s family was aware of his mental health issues.
The messages with his sister Priyanka were from June 8, six days before Sushant was found hanging at his Bandra home.
In the messages, Priyanka Singh had asked Sushant to take Librium for a week, Nexito everyday and Lonazep for “whenever there is anxiety attack”.
All three medicines were prescribed for anxiety and depression.
Priyanka Singh also appears to tell her brother that she can help him connect with the “best doctor in Mumbai, all confidential”.
Here are the chats accessed by NDTV:
Priyanka Singh: First take Librium for a week then start nexito 10 mg once everyday after breakfast. Keep Lonazep handy whenever there is anxiety attack.
Sushant Rajput: ok sonudi
Sushant Rajput: No one will give without prescription
Priyanka Singh: Let me see if I manage
A missed voice call
Priyanka Singh: Babu call me… I have to send the prescription
Priyanka Singh: My friend here is a renowned doctor who can get you connected to the best doctor in Mumbai all confidential.. so don’t worry
Priyanka Singh: Just call
Priyanka Singh: Sends an attachment (Prescription)
Priyanka Singh: Babu this is the prescription
Priyanka Singh: It’s of Delhi but it should not matter . If anything, one can say it is on online consultation
Sushant Rajput: Ok thank you so much Sonadi.
Meanwhile, in the First Information Report filed in Bihar, Sushant Rajput’s father K. K. Singh claimed he had no knowledge about his son’s mental health issues.
He has accused Rhea Chakraborty of giving him medication and taking him for treatment without the knowledge of his family.
The WhatsApp chat shows the actor was being given medication by his family.
Rhea Chakraborty dated Sushant Singh Rajput for a year and left his home on June 8, the day of these chats with Priyanka Singh.
