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.

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.

Indore, Jan 14: Yoga guru Ramdev has said that Deepika Padukone should hire persons like him for offering correct advice, days after the actress had visited Jawaharlal Nehru University in Delhi following the violence at the campus earlier this month.

"Deepika Padukone needs to study about political, social and cultural issues. She should understand more about our country. Only after gaining knowledge, she should take decisions. I feel she should have persons like Swami Ramdev for correct advice," Ramdev said at an event here on Monday.

On January 7, Padukone joined the protest at JNU after a masked mob entered the varsity campus and attacked the students and teachers with sticks and rods on January 5.

Several BJP leaders questioned the support extended by Padukone. On the other hand, the Congress threw their weight behind the actress for her stand.

Mumbai, Jun 16: In the wake of Sushant Singh Rajput's death, veteran actor Deepti Naval has opened up about her struggle with depression and suicidal thoughts in the early 90s.

Naval shared a poem that she wrote during her struggle with depression on her Facebook page after paying tributes to Rajput, who was found hanging in his Bandra apartment on Sunday at the age of 34.

According to a police official, Mumbai Police found out during the probe that the actor was under medication for depression

"Dark days these... So much has been happening - mind has come to a point of stillness... Or rather numbness. Today I feel like sharing a poem I wrote back in the years when I was fighting depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts - Yes, fighting... and like how," Naval wrote.

The 68-year-old actor made her debut with Shyam Benegal's 1978 "Junoon" and went on to feature in films like "Chashme Buddoor", "Ankahee", "Mirch Masala", Saath Saath among others in the 80s.

Naval's poem, titled "Black Wind", begins by describing how anxiety engulfs a person.

"Anxiety grips me with both hands, spiked claws dig deep into my soul I gasp for breath and stagger around sharp corners of my single bed.."

In the poem, Naval talks about fighting suicidal thoughts and depression, describing it as a "ghoulish lust" she won't succumb to.

"The telephone rings... no, it stops...God damn! Why don't anyone speak? A voice, Just a human voice In this shameless, pitiless Abyss of the night - gloom deepens into darkness, turns purple I feel dark inside."

The actor ends by writing that she will survive the night, its "deathly design" and fight.

"The world's a snake pit, so let it be! I dare the devil to get the better of me! Deepti Naval, Night of July 28, 1991."

In an interview with PTI last year, Naval had mentioned how acting assignments started to thin in the late 90s and as a "serious actor" it was "devastating" to be ignored.
