After Sushant Singh Rajput’s sudden death that took place on June 14, 2020. Rhea Chakraborty was arrested in a drug-related case which turned out during the probe of the actor’s death. Amidst all these, the report was also filed by Sushant’s parents that mentioned Rhea’s name as a person responsible for the death of an actor.

The actress had to spend around 28 days in jail post which she was released on bail. Talking about her jail life, she recently went on to upload an Instagram video where she spoke about her experience.
She said, "So, you are basically removed from society and put as a number in prison because you are deemed unfit for society. So there itself, this personality or these things you’ve created about yourself are completely broken.”

She further added,“I was under trial prison, which means it’s a non-convicted prison. And unfortunately, were also or were still innocent because they were not proven guilty. But seeing them and interacting with them I experienced a unique, kind of love and resilience within those women. They found happiness in small things. They grabbed happiness when they got it. They know how to enjoy a moment, and they are some of the happiest people I have met.”

Rhea concluded, "At that point, yes, my life was in the worst hell it could have been. But heaven or hell is a choice in your head that you can make. It’s difficult to choose heaven each time. But the battle is of the mind, and if you have the strength and desire in your heart, you’ll most definitely battle the mind and win.”
