The Bandra police on Thursday summoned director Sanjay Leela Bhansali to record his statement in actor Sushant Singh Rajput's alleged suicide case, as some links have surfaced from the statements of two former employees of Yash Raj Films.

Confirming the development, DCP Pranaya Ashok said, "Summons have been issued to him. His statement will be recorded soon. We are looking into the professional rivalry angle and necessary statements will be recorded to reach a logical conclusion."
