June 10, 2013

Jiah_KhanMumbai, Jun 10: Mumbai police are likely to summon Sooraj Pancholi, son of actor Aditya Pancholi, for questioning on Monday after a six-page letter allegedly written by Jiah Khan was found during the course of the actress' suicide probe. Though the police are tightlipped about the content, news reports said the hand written letter makes shocking revelations about Jiah's troubled relationship with Sooraj.

Jiah blamed Sooraj for betraying her trust and ending her life, reported the Indian Express that claimed to have in possession a copy of the letter.

The Indian Express quoted Jiah Khan as saying in the letter that she was ending her life because, "I have no reason to breathe anymore. All I wanted was love. I did everything for you. I was working for us. My future is destroyed. My happiness snatched away from me. You never appreciated my love. kicked me in my face. I have no confidence or self esteem left. Whatever talent, whatever ambition, you took it all away. You destroyed my life."

"All you want in life is partying, your women, your selfish motives. All I wanted was you and my happiness. You took both away from me. I spent selflessly on you."

"I have nothing left to live for in this world after this. I wish you had loved me like I love you. I leave this place with nothing but broken dreams and empty promises. All I want now is to go to sleep and never wake up again," said the letter.

The details of the letter however could not be independently verified by HT.

When contacted, Juhu police refused to divulge the details of the letter but said investigators are in the process of seeking legal opinion to ascertain if the contents of letter amount to abetment in the actor's suicide.

The police also said they are verifying the authenticity of the letter.

The family of the deceased actress handed over the notarized copy of the letter to the police on Saturday. The family notarized the letter, penned down in English, so that it could not be manipulated at a later stage.

Sources said that six-page letter, allegedly written by Khan, was recovered by the family from her bedroom. It has been said that the letter did not mention any names and was not addressed to anyone in particular.

Jiah Khan also has reportedly written about a party in Goa and a medical procedure she underwent during the relationship. While the family has kept the original copy with themselves a notarized copy will be given to the Juhu police for further probing.

Jiah Khan has not named anyone in the letter. It was also confirmed by the police that Jiah Khan, had attempted suicide earlier by slashing her wrist. But it was only after the medical procedure she underwent, that she took the drastic step.

Twenty five-year-old Jiah Khan had committed suicide by hanging herself at her Juhu residence on June 3.

The police will also send the letter for forensic analysis to confirm if it was written by the late actress. They also hope to ascertain the approximate date it was written on.

Officials have said that the letter may play a crucial role in the investigation as it has a mention of Khan's troubled relationship with Pancholi.

Bengaluru, Jun 9: There’s no denying the fact that Sudeep is one of the most popular and sought-after names in Kannada cinema. The versatile actor has won the love of fans due to his ‘pan-India’ look and impressive selection of roles. A self-made star, he paid his dues before making it big in Sandalwood. The Bachchan actor had, some time ago, told Film Companion that his initial years in the industry were anything but easy.

 The mass hero revealed that his first two movies never saw the light of the day as they were abandoned midway. Following the setback, he finally made his Kannada debut with V Umakanth’s Thayavva and began a new chapter in life. Sadly, the film sank without a trace and was removed from theatres within three days of its release.

“My first two films did not see the light of the day while the third one did not see people,” he added.

Sudeep ultimately tasted success with the 2001 release Huchcha and the rest is history. Over the years, ‘Deepanna’ has starred in several commercially successful movies and proved that he is a certified ‘A-lister’. The star has also made an impact in non-Kannada movies like Rann and Eega, expanding his fanbase big time.

Coming to the present, Sudeep was last seen in the Bollywood biggie Dabangg 3 that did decent business at the box office. The actioner saw him share screen space with Salman Khan, giving fans a reason to rejoice. The cast included Arbaaz Khan and Sonakshi Sinha.

He will be turning his attention to the Kannada biggie Kotigobba 3, the third instalment of the Kotigobba series. The film, directed by Shiva Karthik, is one of the biggest movies of the year. It features Shraddha Das, Madonna Sabastian and Aftab Shivdasani in key roles.  He  will also be seen in the Anup Bhandari-directed Phantom.

Mumbai, May 10: Nearly a month after recovering from the coronavirus, actor Zoa Morani says she has donated her blood plasma to do her bit in helping the patients currently suffering from the novel virus. The actor, who was quarantined and kept under medication in April, also urged those who have recovered from COVID-19 to donate their plasma.

"Donated my blood today for the Plasma therapy trials at Nair hospital. It was fascinating! Always a silver lining I suppose. The team there was so enthusiastic and careful. There was a general physician on standby just incase of emergency and the equipment brand new and safe (sic)," Zoa wrote on Instagram on Saturday.

She thanked the doctors for taking care of her and hoped patients benefit from the donation.

"All #Covid19 recovered people can be a part of this trial, to help others covid patients recover! I hope this works #IndiaFightsCorona. They even gave me a certificate and Rs 500. Wont lie, I felt super cool today (sic)," she added.

Zoa, along with her sister Shaza and father, producer Karim Morani had tested positive for coronavirus in April. All three were discharged from the hospital after testing negative last month.
