Sushant Singh Rajput

Bollywood actor dies at 34

The 34-year-old is believed to have taken his own life, Mumbai police said.

Popular for his acting in both TV and film, Rajput is perhaps best known for MS Dhoni: The Untold Story, where he played the legendary cricketer.

Many have been paying tributes to Rajput, including Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who called him "a bright young actor gone too soon".

Rajput's death comes just days after that of his former manager.

Born in the eastern state of Bihar, Rajput dropped out of a university course in engineering to pursue a career in acting and dance.
