New Delhi : While the investigation agencies are focusing on Rhea Chakraborty and her connection to the death of actor Sushant Singh Rajput, latest WhatsApp chat of Sushant with her sister reveals that his family was aware of his mental health conditions.

The chat is from date June 8, six days before Sushant Singh Rajput was found dead in his Mumbai apartment.

According to the chat accessed by NDTV, Priyanka Singh prescribed anti-depression medicines to Sushant Singh Rahput for a week.

The latest chat comes against the claims made by his family that they were not aware of Sushant's mental health condition.

Priyanka Singh also appears to tell her brother that she can help him connect with the "best doctor in Mumbai, all confidential".

Here are the chats accessed by NDTV:

Priyanka Singh: First take Librium for a week then start nexito 10 mg once everyday after breakfast. Keep Lonazep handy whenever there is anxiety attack.

Sushant Rajput: ok sonudi

Sushant Rajput: No one will give without prescription

Priyanka Singh: Let me see if I manage

A missed voice call

Priyanka Singh: Babu call me... I have to send the prescription

Priyanka Singh: My friend here is a renowned doctor who can get you connected to the best doctor in Mumbai all confidential.. so don't worry

Priyanka Singh: Just call

Priyanka Singh: Sends an attachment (Prescription)

Priyanka Singh: Babu this is the prescription

Priyanka Singh: It's of Delhi but it should not matter. If anything, one can say it is on online consultation

Sushant Rajput: Ok thank you so much Sonadi.

According to the information available on internet, Librium is "a sedative and hypnotic medication of the benzodiazepine class". It is used to treat anxiety, insomnia and symptoms of withdrawal from alcohol and other drugs.

Nexito 10 MG, according to online healthcare service practo.com, is used to treat depression and generalized anxiety disorders. "It should be started at lower doses and gradually increased. Do not stop taking this medicine suddenly as it may cause withdrawal symptoms like mood changes, irritability, dizziness, numbness in the hands or feet, and difficulty in falling asleep," according to the site.

Interestingly, Rhea Chakraborty had moved out of Sushant Singh Rajput's residence on June 8, the same day when this chat happened.
