MUMBAI: The Supreme Court on Wednesday (August 19) gave its much-awaited decision in late Sushant Singh Rajput's case. The case has now been handed over to the Central Bureau of Investigation and this move has been applauded by celebrities and netizens alike. Celebs even called it a big win for SSR's fan. Read on to know more: 

Shashank Vyas: It was a much needed step and though its just the first step towards justice, at least now we can expect an unbiased and fair investigation. I was always in favour of a CBI inquiry, but this goes to his fans, its their victory.

Pranitaa Pandit: I am extremely happy and relieved. I have been following the case and I wanted justice for Sushant. The way the entire case was going CBI inquiry was a must. I am very grateful and happy that the Supreme Court has ordered the same and I am sure we will get answers to a lot of unanswered questions and will get justice for Sushant.

Mohit Malhotra: So finally it happened. It's a victory not just for Sushant's family, but for all those who stood up for him. With the Supreme Court ordering a CBI investigation, I feel now we will have a fair investigation and we will get to know what happened to him on that fateful day. Sushant's family and fans can finally get some relief and hopefully they will get a closure soon, too.

Dhruvee Haldankar: It is apparent that it is on account of political pressure in the state of Maharashtra, and the continuous interference of the media and Sushant's fans and well-wishers that the CBI will now intervene. The Constitution Bench of the Supreme Court has held that access to justice is a fundamental right and I am glad that his family will get to know the truth now. I only hope that the faith in CBI is affirmed and this case sets an example of true justice in India.

Mou Das: The entire country was looking forward for this verdict. This was well expected. There was a lot of social media support for SSR's mysterious death and investigation with regards to it. No one knows what the truth is. The verdict today is just the beginning towards a true and fair investigation by the CBI. We can all wait to see what is the final outcome. Truly sad that such a great artist is no more with us. His demise was a shock in itself and the fact that it was said to be a suicide is just to much to digest. Apparently, there are many loose ends which are being tossed up by the media in the investigation. Let's pray that SSR and his family gets justice and the truth prevails.

Rohit Chaudhary: Yes this is the right decision and we know that CBI will do investigation in a proper and neutral way. The truth will soon come out. Everyone trusts CBI and I feel that some unanswered questions will get their answers, because there is a lot of confusion in it and everyone wants to know the reason behind the death of such a happy and smiling child.  

Amal Sehrawat: I am extremely grateful to the Supreme Court of India for their verdict today. Let the justice prevail.  

Vijayendra Kumeria: I am happy as I was and am in full support for a CBI probe. I just want the truth to come out as Sushant's fan, friends and family need a closure. A fair inquiry is needed in this case and all those who are found guilty should be punished without any mercy.

Aarvika Gupta: CBI inquiry is a big relief to all of us as the truth will come out. The Mumbai government should also give full support to CBI so that an evidence cannot be destroyed. Sushant was a very creative and intelligent guy, and his death was a big loss for all of us.   Sushant should get justice, and the culprit should be punished.

Shubhangi Atre: Yes, I am extremely happy that Supreme Court has ordered CBI inquiry. Now the truth will come out because many things were very suspicious and mysterious.  We should always raise our voice against any injustice and I am extremely happy that Supreme Court has given a verdict for CBI inquiry.

Meera Deosthale: We all were waiting for this verdict and the truth will soon come out. We all want to know what happened with Sushant Singh Rajput. I am really happy by the order and truth shall win.

Jhanvi Sethi: It's a landmark verdict and I along with the whole country welcome it. Supreme court has restored our faith in the jurisdictional system. Now we all pray for the truth to come out and Sushant Singh Rajput and his family to get justice.

Vikas Sethi: Justice for SSR. Now we will have an honest investigation and SSR and his family will definitely get justice.

Kettan Singh: This decision has come late but given the process, better late than never. This case when pursued with the nepotism glass would not have reached out for justice, it was just calling out names and trolling. Now after so many evidences coming out and so many theories, it was high time that the central agency came forward and started the investigation. Also I hope since its been over two months, this case doesn't end up like the Aarushi Talwar case.

Avinash Mukherjee: We all were eagerly waiting for this verdict. It's a big victory for SSR's fans because there wasn't a single day when #CBIforSSR was not trending on social media. We all need to know what happened to him and hopefully we will get the answers soon.

Urvashi Upadhyay Sharle: I have been following his case regularly and always wondered how can such a talented boy commit suicide. There is more to this case than what's visible. We all need answers and we all want justice for Sushant. I am happy that CBI has taken over the case now, at least now we can get some correct answers.
