“Hell With Them”: Rhea Chakraborty Opens Up About Nasty Comments After Sushant Singh Rajput’s Death
Roadies 19 gang leader Rhea Chakraborty recalled how she turned her life around after being embroiled in a controversy surrounding Sushant Singh Rajput’s death.
Bollywood actress Rhea Chakraborty made a comeback to Indian television as she donned the hat of a gang leader on the new season of MTV Roadies. In 2020, Rhea Chakraborty's life took a turn for the worse, after her boyfriend and actor Sushant Singh Rajput allegedly died by suicide. Rhea, who was at the receiving end of vicious media coverage and social media hate post the death of Sushant, recently shared how a “lot of people” said a “lot of things” about her.
In a new promo from MTV ‘Roadies’, Rhea Chakraborty can be seen talking to a contestant, who opens up about her struggles. The Bollywood actress listens to her story and then reflects on her rough patch, calling out those who labelled her various names.
Rhea Chakraborty, who has over three million followers on Instagram, shared the promo video and wrote, “NEVER GIVE UP!”

In the video, Rhea Chakraborty can be seen sympathising with a contestant named Shuly Nadar, who talked about colourism. This is when Rhea opened up about how she had to cope with a difficult period in her life.
By talking about the hate she received and how she turned her life around, Rhea Chakraborty motivated Shuly Nadar.
Rhea said, “Bahut log bahut kuch bolte hain. Mujhe bhi logon ne bahut kuch kaha hai. Aise aise naam diye hai, aisi aisi cheezein kahi hai, par kya unki wajah se main cheezein manungi? Kya main unke wajah se life me rukungi? Bilkul bhi nahi. Kya main unki awaazon ko zara sa bhi zor dungi? Nahi.”
Rhea Chakraborty further encouraged the contestant to follow her heart and not pay any attention to the naysayers.
She added, “Meri andar ki awaaz hai aur aapki bhi andar ki awaaz hai, aap usse suniye and actually to hell with them. Kaun hain wo?”
Shuly Nadar, who is a fitness model, replied to Rhea’s Instagram post, “Yesss hell out of them… @rhea_chakraborty you’re the greatest person I have ever seen , from ppl putting you down crossing so much of hurdles in your life but you know what’s your worth and exactly where u are to guide us. Im just thankful. keep inspiring us. Love ya.”
For the unversed, Rhea Chakraborty was last seen in the 2021 Bollywood film ‘Chehre’ with Amitabh Bachchan and Emraan Hashmi.
She grabbed headlines after Sushant Singh Rajput was found dead on June 14, 2020, days after she had moved out of his house.
Her life turned upside down after she was accused of abetting Sushant Singh Rajput's alleged suicide. Later, she was arrested in a drug-related case during the Bollywood actor’s death probe. After spending nearly a month in judicial custody, she walked out of Byculla jail in Mumbai.
‘Roadies 19’ marks the first project she has shot for after her release. Apart from ‘Chehre’, she has acted in Hindi films like ‘Jalebi’, 'Mere Dad Ki Maruti' and 'Half Girlfriend'.
Coming back to ‘Roadies 19’, Sonu Sood stepped into Rannvijay Singha’s shoes last season as the host of ‘MTV Roadies’. This season, the makers have brought back the format of gang leaders with Prince Narula, Rhea Chakraborty and Gautam Gulati taking charge.
