Mumbai: Two days after ‘Balika Vadhu’ fame television actor Pratyusha Banerjee was found hanging from the ceiling at her two-bedroom flat in Bangur Nagar locality of Mumbai, her beau Rahul Raj Singh was hospitalized on Monday after complaining of respiratory problems. He has been admitted to Sai Hospital in Suburban Kandivali area after he complained of low blood pressure, chest pain and depression.

A television producer, Rahul was earlier taken into police custody for two days and was interrogated about Pratyusha’s mysterious death.

“Rahul has been kept in Intensive Care Unit (ICU) in a very serious condition. He is in a state of depression after his girlfriend’s death. The doctors claim that the patient may suffer from a brain haemorrhage if he continues to be in the same state,” his lawyer Neeraj Gupta said.

“Pratyusha had taken a loan of around Rs 50 lakh for her parents and all the money she used to earn was taken by them. She was liable to pay an instalment of Rs. 10,000 every month for which even I helped her by paying the sum a few times. She also told me that she wanted to file a case against her parents for forcing her to take the loan,” Rahul’s father Harshwardhan said while talking to reporters on Sunday.

Highlights:

  • Rumour was widespread that Pratyusha Banerjee was two months pregnant at the time of her death.
  • Rahul’s father claimed that she wanted to marry his son.
  • The investigation officer said that the doctors did not give any reports which suggest that the actor was pregnant.
  • “Pratyusha and Rahul's common friends had told us that the couple were planning to get married on April 14, the Bengali New Year,” said the police.
