Sushant and Rhea were often spotted together in and about Mumbai but had never acknowledged their relationship publically. It was on Sushant's one-month death anniversary on Tuesday that the actress finally spoke about him in a heart-wrenching post. She also changed her display picture (DP) of WhatsApp to a selfie with Sushant.

Still struggling to face my emotions.. an irreparable numbness in my heart . You are the one who made me believe in love, the power of it . You taught me how a simple mathematical equation can decipher the meaning of life and I promise you that I learnt from you every day. I will never come to terms with you not being here anymore. I know you’re in a much more peaceful place now. The moon, the stars, the galaxies would’ve welcomed “the greatest physicist “with open arms . Full of empathy and joy, you could lighten up a shooting star - now, you are one . I will wait for you my shooting star and make a wish to bring you back to me. You were everything a beautiful person could be, the greatest wonder that the world has seen . My words are incapable of expressing the love we have and I guess you truly meant it when you said it is beyond both of us. You loved everything with an open heart, and now you’ve shown me that our love is indeed exponential. Be in peace Sushi. 30 days of losing you but a lifetime of loving you.... Eternally connected To infinity and beyond

Since Sushant Singh Rajput's death, Rhea has been subjected to a lot of trolling and abuse on social media. Earlier today, she revealed about receiving rape and murder threats on Instagram and has also been told to "commit suicide" or else she would be "killed". 

Rhea shared a screenshot of the message she received and added that she has been called a "gold-digger, a murderer" and also "slut-shamed" earlier.

Rhea was also interrogated by the Mumbai Police as part of the investigation after Sushant's death. Apart from Rhea, some of Sushant's family members, his friends, work associates and house helps were also called to record their statements.
