While his philanthropic act of donating Rs 1 crore to the chief minister’s relief fund for flood-hit Kerala on behalf of a fan had won him accolades, there was a story on him allegedly trying to get familiar with his Kizie Manny co-star Sanjana Sanghi. It had put him under an awkward spotlight. Buzz was that the shoot had to be pushed to a later date as the actress felt uncomfortable.

However, a source close to Sushant had dismissed the rumours. “The shooting of Kizie Manny in Jamshedpur and Ranchi never stopped for a bit. It started in June and after our first schedule got over last week, we are shooting the second with Sushant in Mumbai right now. In fact, Sushant has been busy with helping flood-hit Kerala and other things besides his shoot. After visiting the Yogoda Satsanga Society of India, in Ranchi, he was shooting for Kizie Aur Manny at St Paul’s church when Sushant got to know of a school for the blind which was near his set. Someone told him that the kids were eager to meet him.”

“He interacted with many of them personally, creating beautiful memories for all involved. Not only this, he also took out time to listen to a song performed by a young boy in front of his classmates and teachers. It was a lifelong dream for the boy to sing for Sushant and the performance made the actor emotional. He was so touched that he got up before the song got over and hugged him and the little boy playing the drums beside him” source said.
