Soon after Sushant Singh Rajput's death, reports were making the rounds that a film based on his life will be made. Now, it's confirmed that filmmaker Shamik Maulik will be directing the film titled Suicide or Murder. The first look of the film was unveiled a while back and introduced Sachin Tiwari as the 'outsider'. The film is conceived and produced by Vijay Shekhar Gupta and for the uninitiated Sachin is a TikTok star.
The first look was posted on the Instagram page of new OTT platform VSG Binge and the caption read as "A boy from small-town became a Shining Star in the film industry. This is his journey.

As per reports in BollywoodLife, Vijay quoted a portal stating, "Sushant Singh Rajput’s death by suicide came as a shock to all of us, but it is not new. Many actors who come to the industry to accomplish their dreams of making it big here, end up not getting work. Many take this route, and some keep struggling all their lives. So, we wanted to tell a story of how actors from small towns, who don’t have godfathers in Bollywood, struggle. We will be revealing other characters one by one. I can assure you that this film will unmask the real face of the insiders of Bollywood."
