Calling Tunisha Sharma’s death a murder, Pratyusha Banerjee’s father said, “To be honest, as much as I can understand Tunisha’s death, it seems like murder to me. In the last few years, all murders are being given the form of suicide. Something similar happened with Sushant Singh Rajput. When I was talking to my wife, both of us were crying that again a mother has lost her innocent 20-year-old daughter. Her grief seems like our own.”
The Balika Vadhu actress’ father added, “If someone commits suicide intentionally, he makes sure that he leaves behind a note or letter so that other people do not suffer. This is a 100 percent murder case.” Recently, Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah actress Neha Mehta also stated that Tunisha’s death reminded her of Pratyusha Banerjee’s demise.
Taking about Tunisha Sharma’s death, her co-star and ex-boyfriend, Sheezan Khan has been arrested on the charges of abetment to suicide in the matter. The actor was presented at Vasai court and has been sent to custody till Saturday after his earlier remand ended.
