Mumbai: Two days after TV actress Pratyusha Banerjee was found dead at her residence, her boyfriend Rahul Raj Singh was on Sunday hospitalised after he complained of breathing problems before he was to face a second day of questioning by police over her death.
Rahul, a TV producer, was taken to Shree Sai Hospital in suburban Kandivali after he complained of chest pain, low blood pressure and a bout of depression. "Rahul has been admitted to ICU. His condition is very fragile. He hasn’t eaten. He is in a state of depression after Pratyusha’s death. The doctors say if this continues, he will have brain haemorrhage," his lawyer Neeraj Gupta said.
Pratyusha, 24, who shot to fame with the portrayal of Anandi in hit TV series Balika Vadhu, was found hanging from a ceiling fan at her home on April 1, in what appeared to be a case of suicide. Speculation was rife that Pratyusha was two months pregnant at the time of her death. This was, however, scotched by the investigating officer.
