Farhan Akhtar denies hiring Sushant Singh Rajput's cook Keshav

Actor Farhan Akhtar refutes reports of him hiring late actor Sushant Singh Rajput's cook Keshav. He urged people to not be so gullible and trust reports that surfaced in a section of the media that made such claims.

Mumbai: Farhan Akhtar has denied hiring a former employee of late actor Sushant Singh Rajput at his residence. The actor-filmmaker took to his verified Twitter account on Thursday to refute reports in a section of the media that made such a claim.

"For the record: I have no person named Keshav working at mine. Unsurprisingly, another lie by a fake news channel famous for peddling lies. Please stop being so gullible. Just because a guy screams it out on TV doesn't make it true," Farhan tweeted on Thursday.

His tweet came in response to a user's tweet who wrote: "Breaking news...Neeraj at Sara Ali Khan's house and Keshav at Farhan's house. But why they r employing the suspects?? @FarOutAkhtar."

While Farhan Akhtar has denied such claims, Sushant Singh Rajput's rumoured ex-girlfriend Sara Ali Khan is yet to come out with a statement.

Keshav used to work as a cook at Sushant's Bandra apartment, and allegedly served the late actor a glass of juice on the morning of June 14, hours before the actor's death.
