Popular Telugu TV actress Jhansi, who is known for her performance in the serial Pavithra Bhandanam, has committed suicide at her Sri Sai Apartment in Srinagar Colony, Hyderabad on Tuesday.
Her neighbours informed the police after they found her body hanged to the ceiling. The police, who rushed to the spot immediately, registered a case and shifted her body to Gandhi Hospital for post-mortem. They have already started investigating the case.
Jhansi,
who hailed from Krishna district, Mudanapalli, was in love with a youngster named Surya aka Nani. She wanted to marry him, but his parents were against their relationship. Following this Surya declined to tie the knot with her and had been staying away from her from some time. This lead her to depression and she took the extreme step, according to her parents.
Surya is reportedly absconding since learning about Jhansi's suicide. The police are conducting a search to question him.
