Author Chetan Bhagat has called for restraint on the media coverage of the Sushant Singh Rajput death case at a time when the country is facing big challenges, one of them the coronavirus crisis and the row over holding national entrance exams for engineering and medical courses. "With all respect to Sushant, I loved him; I owe my career to him. Kai Po Che was not getting made. I was not getting a movie started after 3 Idiots because of whatever happened. Sushant saved me, so please, nobody can really say I don't care for him. But we have to care for India also. We cannot spend months and months making that (the case) the prime issue," the author whose 2004 book Five Point Someone became wildly popular among young people told NDTV. Mr Rajput was one of the lead actors in the 2013 film Kai Po Che.
