Valentine¡¯s Day might be all about love, roses, and overpriced chocolates, but for Sushant Singh Rajput¡¯s fans, it was about something far more profound¡ªundying devotion to the late actor. A group of die-hard admirers from Russia traveled all the way to Mumbai, just to light candles outside his Bandra residence and pay tribute to the man who stole hearts on and off the screen. If that¡¯s not peak fandom energy, we don¡¯t know what is!
Holding posters of the MS Dhoni actor and placards reading ¡°Justice for Sushant from Russia,¡± these women proved that Sushant¡¯s magic wasn¡¯t just limited to India. It has traveled across borders, much like his infectious smile and iconic performances. According to reports, they specifically chose Valentine¡¯s Day as a way to honour the actor, marking the place he called home until his untimely demise.

And this isn¡¯t the first time fans have gone all out for Sushant. Last month, on January 21, social media was flooded with tributes for the actor on what would have been his 38th birthday. Producer Ekta Kapoor took to Instagram to share an old clip from Pavitra Rishta, his breakout television show, reminding everyone of the days when he made Manav the ultimate desi boy crush. ¡°It¡¯s a wave of nostalgia, emotions, and memories today,¡± Ekta reportedly mentioned in her post, reminiscing about the late actor.
Sushant¡¯s sister, Shweta Singh Kirti, also took to social media to celebrate his legacy with a heartfelt post. She described him as a seeker, a dreamer, and a star who inspired millions with his boundless curiosity and fearless pursuit of dreams. Her post came with a touching montage of Sushant¡¯s Bollywood milestones, proving once again that he wasn¡¯t just an actor¡ªhe was an entire era.
Sushant Singh Rajput was found dead in his Bandra apartment on June 14, 2020, but the love for him refuses to fade. Whether it¡¯s fans making pilgrimages to his home or Bollywood remembering his infectious energy, one thing is certain that Sushant is, and always will be, the main character.
