Amid Sushant Singh Rajput's sudden demise, the whole tinsel town is under the deep ocean of controversies. Several Bollywood stars have shared their views and opinions on the ongoing drug probe but now Akshay Kumar has finally breaks his silence on Sushant Singh Rajput's death and on the ongoing drug probe. He also admitted that drug consumption is a problem in the film industry but he requested his fans not to blame the whole industry for the same.

Akshay Kumar shared a video on Instagram and wrote, "#DirectDilSe Bahot Dino Se Mann Mein Kuch Baat Thi Lekin Samajh Nahi Aa Raha Tha Kya Kahoon, Kisse Kahoon. Aaj Socha Aap Logon Se Share Kar Loon, So Here Goes...#DirectDilSe 🙏🏻." Check out his post here -



Akshay said in the video with regards to the ongoing controversy, `I speak to you today with a heavy heart. In the last few weeks, I wanted to say some things but there was so much negativity all around that I could not understand what to say, how much to say and whom to say it to. Even though we are called 'stars', it is you (the audience) who has made Bollywood what it is, with your love. We are not just an industry; through the medium of films, we have promoted Indian values and culture to every corner of the world. Films have tried to portray the sentiments of the people in our country, however you have felt, all these years. Whether it is the rage of the Angry Young Man, corruption or unemployment, cinema has tried to highlight these issues in its own way. So today, if your sentiments are angry, we accept that anger.`

Akshay said that several issues have come to light after Sushant's death, that have forced the industry to introspect and look at what is happening in their own backyard. `After the sudden death of Sushant Singh Rajput, a lot of issues came to light which pained us as much as they pained you. These issues forced us to look at what is happening in our own backyard. It forced us to examine many ills of the film industry, which need to be looked into. Like, narcotics and drugs are being talked about now. I cannot lie to you and tell you that this problem does not exist. It definitely does, just like it must exist in every industry and profession. However, it cannot be that every person in every industry is involved in the problem. How is that possible?,` he asked.

`Use of drugs is a legal matter and I am confident that whatever action will be taken by our law enforcement agencies and courts will be absolutely correct. I also know that every member of the film industry will fully cooperate in the investigation. But please, I implore you with folded hands, do not look at the entire industry in the same tainted light. That is not correct,` he added.

On a negative news item, Akshay said, `Personally, I have always believed in the power of the media. If our media does not pick up the right issues at the right time, then many people will neither find a voice nor justice. I request the media to continue raising its voice but please maintain some sensitivity because one negative news item can destroy someone's reputation that took years of hard work to build."

Akshay further added while thanking his fans for their love and said, `My message to my fans is, you are the ones who have made us. We will not let you down. If you are upset, we will work harder on our flaws. We will win your trust and love. We exist because of you. Please stand with us. Thank you very much."
