In October last year, there were reports of Sanjana Sanghi accusing Sushant Singh Rajput of sexually harassing her. 
Director Mukesh Chabbra rubbished the reports. But with the #MeToo movement going on, the actor was heavily trolled on social media. Sushant went off Twitter for a while but before that he wrote: "The last thing worth doing is to defend yourself of the fiction created by an agenda. People using this much required campaign for their personal agenda is too much to ignore. So here is the text conversation with Sanjana till the time I shot for the film. I let you decide."

He shared screenshots of his conversation with Sanjana on social media and wrote: "I feel sad to reveal personal information but it seems that there is no other way to state what actually happened, in the midst of this curated, well timed and agenda driver smear campaign. From the first day of the shoot till the last day, this is what happened on the sets with Sanjana. Misconduct ? Not at al. Agenda ? You decide."

On the professional front, Sushant Singh Rajput's next projects include 'Drive', an upcoming action drama film, and a remake of the 2011 American film 'Drive'. It is directed by Tarun Mansukhani and produced by Karan Johar. Jacqueline Fernandez, Vikramjeet Virk, Pankaj Tripathi, Boman Irani and Sapna Pabbi will be seen alongside Sushant. The film was earlier announced to release on 7 September 2018, but was later pushed to 28 June 2019.

Apart from this, Sushant will also be seen in 'Chhichhore', a romantic comedy-drama film directed by Nitesh Tiwari and produced by Sajid Nadiadwala under the banner of Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment. The film is scheduled to be released on 30 August 2019. The film also stars Shraddha Kapoor, Prateik Babbar, Siddharth Narayan, Varun Sharma, Tahir Raj Bhasin among others.
