Poplar TV actress Pratyusha Banerjee who rose to fame as Anandi in ‘Balika Vadhu’ was found dead yesterday at her suburban residence in a suspected case of suicide. While there are no concrete details yet, it’s being said that Pratyusha hanged herself to death in her flat in Kandivali. She was later rushed to Kokilaben Ambani Hospital in Mumbai, where she was pronounced dead.  No suicide note was found from the flat.

Reports claimed that she committed suicide because of certain issues in her personal life. She was dating Rahul Raj Singh and there were rumors about them getting married soon, but there was supposedly having complications in her relationship. Her last status message on Whatsapp read, “Marke bhi muh na tuzse modana” (even after death won’t be turning my face away from you) with a smiley.

Last seen in the show Sasural Simar Ka, the 24-year-old actress also participated in the reality show Bigg Boss in season 7. There were also reports that she was bogged down by financial issues. The police are investigating the reasons that caused her death.
