Amaal Malik on Kartik Aaryan

Renowned singer and composer Amaal Mallik recently made some startling assertions about the inner workings of Bollywood in a candid interview with Mirchi Plus. He compared the tragic tale of the late Sushant Singh Rajput to the current struggles of actor Kartik Aaryan.

Many people were surprised by Amaal's comments, particularly Kartik's admirers, as he charged prominent members of the industry, such as well-known producers and actors, with trying to deliberately marginalise Kartik Aaryan in a similar manner to what he feels was done to Sushant.

Speaking openly about the darker underbelly of the film industry, Amaal stated, "The public has understood the reality of this industry… itni dark hai ki logo ki life chali gayi. Sushant Singh Rajput nahi handle kar paaye. Jo bhi unke saath hua, some blame it as murder, some blame it as suicide. Jo bhi ho, aadmi toh chala gaya na."

He further reflected on the systemic pressures that may have contributed to Sushant’s state of mind, adding, “Iss industry ne hi kuch kiya hai unke mind pe ya unke soul pe. Ya logon ne saath main unko demoralise kiya. Yeh industry aisi jagah hai.” According to Amaal, the late actor’s death shook the nation and permanently changed public sentiment towards Bollywood.

"Publicly kabhi industy ki band nahi baji… Sushant Singh Rajput ki death ne inn logo ka sab cheen liya. Deserving bhi hai, they deserve to see this downfall. Acche aadmi ke saath galat hua. Aaj aap dekho, vohi cheezein, indirectly ya directly Kartik Aaryan ke saath karne ka bhi try karte hain log. Voh bhi unhi problems se joojh ke, dance karte hue nikla hai, smile karte hue."

Amaal highlighted the importance of Kartik’s family support, saying, "But uske peeche uske mummy, papa sab saath hain to support and guide him. He’s also a newcomer who has come in, done his bit, usko bhi 100 log hatane ke firaaq main hain. Power play karte hain. Sab kuch karte hain bade bade producers, actors"

He concluded with a bold claim: “Power play karte hain. Sab kuch karte hain bade bade producers, actors."

Sushant Singh Rajput was found dead in his Mumbai flat on 14 June 2020 at the age of 34. His passing sparked a wave of national grief and outrage, leading to widespread debates around mental health, nepotism, and the harsh realities of the entertainment industry.
