Sandeep Nahar, who starred in films like Kesari and MS Dhoni, allegedly died by suicide on Monday hours after he wrote on Facebook about his intention of taking the extreme step.
In the FB post, the actor had accused his wife and mother-in-law of relentlessly harassing him. Sandeep had said that he and his wife were in an unhealthy relationship, which was riddled with constant fights and arguments. He, however, said no one should be held responsible for his death.
Sandeep had also mentioned his disappointment with “politics” in Bollywood, which, he alleged, snatched away opportunities from him at the last moment.
