Popular Swedish YouTuber broke the internet after he shared a video paying tribute to late Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput.
Fans were excited that the biggest name on YouTube offered his condolences and talked about different aspects of the actor’s life.

The YouTube sensation confessed that he didn’t know Sushant but said that he heard a lot about him lately and decided to share what he learned about the late actor’s life with his followers. Pew revealed that he and the actor have several things in common.
In no time the 24-minutes long video went viral on the internet and fans showered their love and respect through social media posts. He also made a reference to the actor’s famous speech at Avenues 2016, SJMSOM, IIT Bombay where Sushant inspired students talking about how he pursued his dream.
Speaking about Sushant Singh Rajput on his channel, PewDiePie shared, “He’s such a cool dude, such a smart guy, such a good message as well that I so wholeheartedly believe in just such a tragedy..it really makes you sad to think that he passed away at such a young age.”
He added, “Police say that he died of suicide but at least personally that someone lives in the moment… I cannot make sense out of committing suicide and there’s been this whole controversy and theories about did he really commit suicide or what happened..I don’t want to get into that but want it just to be a video attributing him because I think he’s a cool dude and I wanted to share with my audience.”
The YouTuber concluded, “It’s just this statement he had about living in the moment…obviously this was a couple of years ago but it’s just you wouldn’t commit suicide if you had this mindset…I don’t believe that at all but then again I don’t want to add to that… Rest In Peace Sushant… I would love to meet you..seem like an awesome dude and thank you for being you.”
Sushant’s final film Dil Bechara will be streaming on Disney+Hotstar on July 24 from 7.30pm.
