Anuradha Shrivastava has done Post Graduation in Mass Communication and Journalism. She likes to keep herself up-to-date with all that's happening in the world of Entertainment. When she is not working, you'll probably catch her watching movies.

From nepotism debate to murder, several theories are surfacing after Sushant Singh Rajput was found hanging at his Mumbai apartment. Now, as per his fans, the Wikipedia page of the late actor was updated with the news of his death before he actually died. Police stated that Sushant died at 10 am and the screenshots of the Wikipedia page that his fans shared showed 8:59 am. This is indeed confusing.

Have a look at the screenshots:

His wikipedia edit is locked. So, that someone will not edit about his mysterious death.Please change Cause of death from Sucide to -Not clear. It's not truth, its only presumtion.Still it needs investigation. It's a murder. @itsSSR #SSRMurderCase @Wikipedia #CBIEnquiryForSSR pic.twitter.com/AL1EY4lg0T

Can you believe that a person like @itsSSR would go on updating his @Wikipedia page and at precisely 9:08 am to mention that he committed suicide. We demand #CBIEnquiryForSushantSinghRajput and @CMOMaharashtra has to intervene asap to stop tampering of evidence! @narendramodi pic.twitter.com/s6H7X5O9bP

Fact check

The claim is wrong as a Delhi based user updated the page at 8:59 UTC (Coordinated Universal Time, which Wikipedia uses) instead of IST (Indian Standard Time) which means that new details were added at 2:29 PM.

Karan Johar, Alia Bhatt, Salman Khan and many others are being accused of ganging up against Sushant. His fans say that he became the victim of nepotism. It was said that he lost 7 films in 6 months due to which he was in stress. Nobody knows the mystery behind his death but the police is investigating the case.

On a related note, Sushant's last film Dil Bechara, which is the Hindi remake of The Fault In Our Stars, is all set to release of Hotstar on July 24.
