Sushant Singh was fired from Savdhaan India in 2019
In 2019, Sushant was allegedly let go from Savdhaan India because of his participation in the protests against Citizenship Amendment Act. The actor, who was associated with the TV show as its host since 2012, had shared the news about his exit on Twitter, hinting his involvement with the protests may have been the reason, saying it was a "small price" to pay for speaking up.
Sushant has been vocal on issues such as #MeToo as well as against CAA.
Meanwhile, the Congress's Bharat Jodo Yatra continued on the fourth day of its Maharashtra leg on Thursday in the Nanded district where Rahul Gandhi addressed a public rally in the evening.
The yatra will cover Nanded city, Deglur and Ardhapur areas and proceed to Hingoli on Friday.
This is the Bharat Jodo Yatra's 64th day after it started from Kanniyakumari in Tamil Nadu on September 7.
The yatra, a mass contact initiative of the Congress, will cover a distance of 3,750 km before concluding in Srinagar in January 2023.
