Disha Salian death case reopened
The Disha Salian death case has been reopened, with a significant development occurring on March 25, 2025, when a 75-page First Information Report (FIR) was registered by the Mumbai Police. This FIR names several high-profile individuals, including Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Aaditya Thackeray, actress Rhea Chakraborty, and actors Dino Morea and Suraj Pancholi, among others. The reopening of the case has reignited public interest and scrutiny regarding the circumstances surrounding Disha’s death, which occurred on June 8, 2020, just days before the death of actor Sushant Singh Rajput.
Advocate Nilesh Ojha, representing Disha’s family, confirmed that a formal complaint had previously been submitted to the Commissioner of Police and has now been officially registered as an FIR. He stated that this step is crucial for justice and includes allegations of a conspiracy to cover up the details of Disha’s death. The FIR also implicates former Mumbai Police Commissioner Parambir Singh and others in the alleged cover-up.
The complaint suggests that there may have been a broader conspiracy involving drug-related activities linked to some of the named individuals. Ojha emphasized findings from the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) that point towards a potential drug nexus involving these high-profile figures.
Disha Salian’s father, Satish Salian, has been actively pursuing justice for his daughter, claiming that her death was not an accident but rather a result of foul play. His efforts include filing a public interest litigation in September 2023, which led to the formation of a Special Investigation Team (SIT) by the Maharashtra government to look into the case further.
This reopening comes after years of speculation and calls for justice, particularly given the close timing of Disha’s death with Sushant Singh Rajput’s passing, which has led many to believe there may be connections between the two cases. As public discourse around these events intensifies, both families continue to seek accountability and transparency in the investigations.
Disha Salian death case has been reopened as of March 25, 2025. Recent developments indicate that an FIR (First Information Report) has been filed against several high-profile individuals, including Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Aaditya Thackeray, actress Rhea Chakraborty, actors Dino Morea and Suraj Pancholi, and others. This follows a complaint lodged by Disha Salian’s father, Satish Salian, who has sought a fresh CBI probe into his daughter’s death, alleging political interference and suspicious circumstances.
Disha Salian, the former manager of late actor Sushant Singh Rajput, died on June 8, 2020, after reportedly falling from the 14th floor of a residential building in Malad, Mumbai. Her death occurred just six days before Sushant Singh Rajput was found dead in his Bandra home on June 14, 2020, sparking widespread speculation and conspiracy theories linking the two incidents. The FIR, accepted by the Mumbai Commissioner of Police and the Joint Commissioner of Police (Crime), names a total of nine accused, including former Mumbai Police Commissioner Parambir Singh and dismissed officer Sachin Vaze, with allegations of a larger conspiracy and cover-up.
Satish Salian had previously expressed satisfaction with the Mumbai Police investigation, which concluded in 2021 that there was no foul play. However, his recent actions suggest a shift, as he now claims his daughter’s death involved foul play, including accusations of rape and murder. This has reignited public and political interest in the case, especially given its proximity to Sushant Singh Rajput’s death and the involvement of prominent figures. The Bombay High Court is set to hear the case on April 2, 2025, as the investigation continues to unfold.
