Sushant Singh Rajput's Sister Shares Emotional Video On His Death Anniversary
Sushant Singh Rajput was found dead in his Mumbai apartment on June 14, 2020. While some suspected to be a case of death by suicide, others had alleged foul play.
On the occasion of Sushant Singh Rajput's fifth death anniversary, his sister, Shweta Singh Kirti, took to her Instagram handle and dropped an emotional video. In the clip, she discussed missing her late actor-brother while also explaining what SSR stood for. Shweta mentioned that Sushant is still alive in our hearts and urged everyone not ever to spread negativity using his name.
In the caption of her post, Shweta also wrote and reflected on what she said in the video. 'Today is Bhai 5th Death Anniversary, a lot has happened since his death on 14th June 2020. Now CBI has submitted a report to the court and we are in a process of retrieving it. But what I want to say today is no matter what happens, don't loose heart and don't loose faith on god or in goodness. Always remember what our Sushant stood for… purity, an unquenchable zeal for life and learning, a heart full of love which believed in treating everyone equally and doing charity. His smile and his eyes had this child like innocence which could stir anyone's heart with overflowing love. That's what our Sushant stood for. That's what we have to stand for,' she wrote.
'Bhai hasn't gone anywhere believe me… he is in you, in me, in all of us. Everytime we love with all our heart, everytime we have child like innocence towards life, everytime we are inclined to learn more, we are bringing him alive. Never use Bhai's name to spread any negative feeling… he wouldn't like that. He didn't stand for that. Look how many people's heart and mind he touched and influenced…. Let his legacy continue… you be the burning candle that lights up other candles to continue his legacy. Any great person's legacy always grows after he has passed on….. you know why is that? Because the magnetism of their personality sows seeds and influences minds for generations to come….❤️🙏 (sic)," she added.
Besides this, Shweta also shared a series of throwback pictures to remember her late brother. In one of the photos, the actor was seen spending time with his father. Another picture featured Shweta taking a selfie with him.

In March 2024, Shweta issued a video statement and urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to look into the CBI probe regarding her actor-brother's death. In her statement, she argued that Prime Minister Modi's help will not only fasten the probe but will also provide relief to 'howling hearts".

‘Your Kids Aren't White': American Woman Exposes Hate Faced By Foreigners Married To Indians
Last Updated: Reacting to the woman's post, a user said, 'It's not only India. Mexico, Africa, Asia, and most of the non-White, non-Western world get the same treatment.' It is the 21st century, but we are yet to get rid of social evils like racism. Such prejudicial thoughts are so ingrained in our social fabric that whenever a Westerner is married to an Indian, they have to face limitless offensive remarks. One incident that has come to light is that of an American digital creator who is married to an Indian man. According to her Instagram bio, she has been living in India for 19 years and teaches Hindi. Taking to her Instagram account, she listed down all the shocking comments she has faced ever since she married her Indian husband and moved to India. The woman was seen casually taking a stroll in a narrow lane flanked by shops. The text on her video read: 'Absurd things trolls say to foreigners married to Indians." She then lists all the offensive comments she has received over the years. 'Your husband married you for a green card," 'I feel bad for you that you married a dark-skinned person," 'You destroyed your life by moving to India," 'Too bad your kids aren't white like you," she wrote on the video. In the caption, the American woman further talked about the issue, saying, 'How many of these have you heard or seen online? In promise, this is just a sample of colourism, racism and white skin, western passport worship I see on a daily basis." Here's How The Internet Reacted? Taking to the comments, many social media users have shared their experience with such trolls, and others were disappointed to see how a section of society is still 'racist" even when we are living in 2025. 'So sad that people have such terrible things to say to people just living their life," said one user, whereas another added, 'Always the green card comment for me." 'Yes, people with small minds will say horrible things, and probably have never travelled or experienced other cultures. It's very sad," said a different one. Someone shared how people all over the world face such comments, writing, 'It's not only India. Mexico, Africa, Asia, and most of the non-White, non-Western world get the same treatment. Very sad this is still happening in 2025." Another person gave a solution to the American woman, saying, 'Try sarcasm sometimes, 'unlike you people, I'm not that white-obsessed". Ignore and avoid such people mostly." Since the woman has posted the video on her profile, it has received over 2,00,000 views.

Travis and Taylor Swift's love story: Kelce jokes he's living a 'flipped Pretty Woman' life as they reveal matching lock screens
Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift just made their relationship Instagram official in the most subtly coordinated way possible: by revealing their matching phone lock screens. The Kansas City Chiefs tight end dropped a 13-photo Instagram carousel this week, showing off his offseason adventures with Swift, and eagle-eyed fans quickly picked up on a detail that screamed couple goals. Both phones, resting on a dinner table in one shot, display black-and-white images of the couple, confirming that even their tech is in sync. But that was not the only recent reveal: Kelce also took a playful jab at himself for walking right into a viral joke about being Swift's 'Pretty Man.' Matching lock screens and Instagram debuts In a carousel posted Thursday, July 24, Travis Kelce gave fans a peek into his offseason—featuring multiple cameos from Taylor Swift. The standout detail? Both of their phone lock screens captured the same romantic black-and-white image of the couple. Kelce's screen was clearly visible, while Swift's was partially blocked by a glass. However, fans were quick to connect the dots. The photo reel is Swift's first official appearance on Kelce's Instagram, emphasizing just how public and playful their relationship has become since going official in October 2023. From skating rink snapshots to nautical outfits labeled 'captain' and 'first mate,' their vacation photos painted a picture of a couple enjoying downtime without a packed tour or training schedule. The 'reverse Pretty Woman' joke Kelce couldn't dodge On a recent episode of the New Heights podcast, Travis and Jason Kelce reviewed Pretty Woman, the 1990 Julia Roberts film, leading to an unscripted comparison that quickly escalated online. After Travis pitched a gender-flipped version titled Pretty Man, Jason jumped in: 'You're living Pretty Man right now.' Travis, laughing, admitted in a follow-up Instagram comment, 'Yeah, I walked myself right into that one.' The Chiefs star also joked that he'd be wearing 'nothing but a tie when Taylor comes home,' leaning fully into the bit. Jason chimed in on the platform with, 'Does this make me Kit?' referencing Roberts' on-screen best friend. Fans loved the exchange, but even Kelce knew: the setup was all his.
