<strong>From workout buddies to good friends: Shaan Shashank Mishra talks about his relationship with Sheezan Khan</strong>

While Tunisha Sharma’s suicide sent a shock wave across the entertainment industry, actor Sheezan Khan’s arrest too came as a big shock to everyone. Actor Shaan Shashank Mishra, who worked closely with Sheezan during their time as leads of their respective shows on Azaad channel, said that he is a nice person with a humble nature.

“I have known Sheezan for a year now because we worked together for the same channel Azaad. He was working as the lead in ‘Pavitra: Bharose Ka Safar’, while I was the lead in ‘Lovepantii’. We became friends from there and then started hanging out together as we used to work out at the same gym. If you're doing a serial as the main lead hero, you never get an off easily. So our bond was different as we used to meet every day,” he said.

“From what I know of Sheezan, he is a very nice person, with a humble nature, kindhearted and he has a lot of respect for others. He respects everyone, and has good etiquette. He has taught me a lot. ‘Ali Baba: Dastaan-E-Kabul’ was his big break because he always wanted to do something like that and when he got this opportunity, he was very excited to do it and was very happy since the time he got on the show,” he added.

With so much going around as Sheezan has been accused of allegedly abetting the suicide of his co-star Tunisha, Shaan shared that Sheezan too is suffering. “We saw how the police dragged him barefoot. The media is after him, and the audience is making a lot of comments about him. I don't think he was here for this. We should not forget that he is also someone's son or brother. We should not treat him badly until and unless he is proven to be guilty. You can doubt him but you cannot hold him responsible for everything,” he said.

“I have seen him crying all day and night in the police station as well as the hospital. I saw how he was requesting the doctors to save her. And he is the person who brought Tunisha to the hospital and he was praying for her. Tunisha loved Sheezan’s family as much as Sheezan’s family loved her. Police are still investigating the case and I will only request everyone to not just claim things yet. This is my opinion, yours can be different and I do not mind either,” Shaan ended.
