With a motive to unearth the reason behind Sushant's suicide, Mumbai police is carrying out interrogation and so far the police have recorded the statement of more than 10 people.

According to a source, "In the last few months, the person who was the closest to Sushant was Rhea and they were together almost all the time. Police decided to call her first today," and interrogate her separately.

Revealing pieces of information about Rhea's interrogation, the source said: "Rhea was asked to show all the text messages exchanged between the two. Her entire phone was scanned, including all their pictures and videos together."

About their rumoured relationship, the source added: "Rhea spoke about living in with Sushant and also revealed that they were planning to buy a property as well, as revealed by their broker previously. She admitted that they did plan to get married by the end of 2020."

"Police raised suspicion about that and also asked her if they had decided to break up. It seems she informed the police how they had a fight and she left. She showed the text messages exchanged after that between her and Sushant and also told them that they did speak over calls," the source told a media outlet.

Hours before Sushant took the extreme step, he had dialled Rhea, but the call went unanswered.

As per the call recordings, "Rhea happens to be the last person Sushant dialled before going to sleep. The actor called Mahesh Shetty first who didn't answer and then called Rhea who also didn't pick up the call. He went to sleep, woke up and saw Mahesh had returned the call. He called him back but it didn't get connected," said the source.

When asked about Sushant's behavioural changes, Rhea "not only spoke about it, but also showed proof that proved how he was undergoing treatment for clinical depression."

"She also told police that there would be days when he would feel extremely low and upset. She also shared that he would refuse to take his medication and she tried to coax him to take them but to no avail," shared the source.

The police informed, "There was more than one film being planned with Sushant and Rhea together. Sushant's date diary would have been full till next year with the projects he was almost locked in. She gave police the details about all the projects Sushant was in talks for," according to the source.

Rhea told the police that once "she decided to leave knowing Sushant's condition, she also informed his sister and asked her to come and stay with him," added the source.

Police may also call people from some production houses for an enquiry, shared another source.
