From one Neurotic Imposter to Another

Dearest Sushant,

Wasn’t it just yesterday when I used to spend my evenings watching you as Manav? I remember I was just a child back then yet I saw something very different in you, Deep down I knew that this man is something else. Years passed by and I was happy to see that you were excelling and I could sense that things will only get bigger from now on and that there is no turning back.

I had always searched for an idol, none could be one to me they all lacked something. They were great at their work but not as great as humans and that’s what made me move away from these people, I knew that I was looking up to the wrong people.

And then came a day when I found you, and trust me friend you’ll be my greatest inspiration for as long as I am. I cannot thank you enough for the change that you’ve brought in my life. It was only you who taught me to dream with my eyes wide open, to chase my dreams and not give up no matter what, to be a nice human being, to be kind and empathetic, to spread love and peace in every possible way. I am extremely thankful for that little infinity you have made for all of us.

I truly loved watching you on the Big Screen and nothing gave me more joy than that. I used to wait all year to go to the cinemas and watch your craft. You always failed to disappoint me. We all talk about Sushant, the actor and yes I must say time and again that you were an absolute master at your craft. But Sushant, the human was equally beautiful and not many knew that. You’re the one who truly changed my life forever.

Your love for this world, for the stars, for the constellations, for astrophysics and that curiosity towards life never failed to amaze me. All that you did my friend will be remembered forever and stay alive. A life that touches others goes on forever. Yours was one such life.

With you leaving us, there is a constant void and trust me in these 4+ months I have understood well that nothing can fill this emptiness. I will seek you everywhere, Sushant. I was and am extremely lucky to be your fan and you truly made me feel like your friend. Thank you for everything. I wish I had told you more often how much I loved you but I know that you knew it and for the moment that’s all that matters. I promise you that I’ll try to complete all your dreams at least as much as I can.

We will meet again some day in a parallel universe or in our next life and have a long talk about nothing and everything at the same time. Till then I am praying for your peace and happiness. I know that you are in a better place now away from all this. I want to say much more but maybe this is enough for the time being.

Take care my dearest friend I miss you & a lot .:’)❤️🦋💫
-Your Fan Forever
