We often forget that depression might push people to suicide even when they have big aspirations in life. Sushant Singh Rajpoot was no different.
The actor left behind a list of his ‘dreams in life’, and the Internet feels heartbroken again.
One of his dreams was to attend an Abida Parveen concert. The actor jot down things he wanted to do in his ‘list of dreams’.
Recently this Instagram story with a few of those dreams resurfaced.
This bucket list of sorts is from his personal diary.
While we still recover from the shock of his suicide, this bucket list hits us with the brutal nature of depression and how it progresses without most onlookers even knowing. We don’t take the time to dig deeper when these people are alive and we just lose them.
It’s surprising yet heartbreaking to see the PK actor’s last few wishes including attending Sufi singer Abida Parveen’s concert. The wish seems tangible, but will forever be left a dream.
Earlier in April, the Pakistani artist held her first Instagram live concert.
Sushant Singh Rajpoot’s List of Dreams in Life
Other dreams on the list include:
- fulfilling the wishes of 100 mothers;
- building the biggest library of India;
- send 100 kids to NASA workshops.
Then there were things he wanted to do for himself like get a flying license; play football with Ronaldo; play cricket with his left hand; write a book.
Less tangible wishes included space training at NASA, and spending a night alone in a graveyard.
He was a huge Iron Man fan based on his wishes to click a selfie with Robert Downey Jr. in his Iron Man outfit, and to participate in the Iron Man triathlon.
Sushant Singh Rajpoot shared his wishlist in bits and pieces but also shared a list ‘My 50 dreams & counting‘ on Twitter and Instagram in 2019, using #lovingmydream.
