Taapsee Pannu:  “Life is not fair to any one of us. Unfortunately some of us don’t have enough support system in life to help us through our tough times. I don’t think singling out film industry is fair as every industry has struggles of its own kind just that ours is talked about the most being in media.

Sonu Sood: “Whenever such incidents happen I feel really saddened. Young boys and girls who come to Mumbai  with dreams  in their eyes ,why  do they take  such an extreme step?

The  number of  jobs  available  to actors in India is far less than the  ones  aspiring  for those jobs.Like  I said the  film industry needs to give the youngsters  more hope  , more work. And when they do get work it shouldn’t seem like  a  favour to them. They should be  treated well . They should be strong, they should feel motivated  about their career taking off.”

Also mental health is stigmatized and neglected both by the sufferer and by society at large. The result is that most people remain in denial until it is too late. We must recognize mental health issues and seek help. I am very saddened by this loss although I did not know him. How can we help prevent this? We must do something to help.
