Rhea Chakraborty recently visited the Siddhivinayak Temple in Mumbai with her father and brother, Showik Chakraborty. This visit happened after the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) gave her a clean chit in the case related to the death of Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput. It was her first public appearance since the CBI’s clearance.
Rhea, her father Indrajit, and Showik were seen walking towards the temple. They posed for the paparazzi outside the temple with folded hands, showing respect. Rhea wore a green and pink floral suit, while her brother wore a white kurta with denims. Photos and videos of their visit went viral on social media.
Sushant Singh Rajput was found dead in his home in Bandra, Mumbai, on June 14, 2020. He was 34 years old. His death shocked the entire country and led to a lot of controversy. At first, the Mumbai Police was investigating the case, but later, it was transferred to the CBI.
The postmortem report from Mumbai’s Cooper Hospital said the cause of death was asphyxia, meaning lack of oxygen. But soon after his death, Sushant’s family accused Rhea of being involved. They filed a complaint in Patna, Bihar, saying she had taken Rs 15 crore from Sushant’s property.
This complaint led to a major investigation. It was widely covered by the media, and Rhea faced a lot of criticism and media trials. Her lawyer, Satish Maneshinde, kept saying from the beginning that she had no role in Sushant’s death. Still, the case went on for years. Eventually, it reached the Supreme Court, which handed the investigation to the CBI.
After almost five years, the CBI finally submitted its closure report. It stated that there was no proof against Rhea in connection with Sushant’s death. The report confirmed that her name should be cleared. This brought a sense of relief to Rhea and her family.

After the closure report, many people from the film industry supported Rhea and demanded an apology from the media for targeting her unfairly. Actress Dia Mirza was one of them. She said the media should say sorry to Rhea for the mental trauma she went through.
With this temple visit, Rhea seems to be trying to move forward and bring peace into her life. The visit also sent a strong message that she and her family are trying to heal after years of stress, blame, and media pressure.
