Frustrated After Not Getting Work In Bollywood, B.A. Pass Actress Shikha Joshi Commits Suicide




The ugly side of life in tinsel town has been exposed once again as Shikha Joshi, a 40-year-old model-turned-actress of B.A. Pass fame, took her own life under mysterious circumstances at her MHADA flat in Versova, Mumbai, on the evening of May 16, 2015.

"The incident took place at around 6 pm. Joshi would stay in the flat with her friend. She went into the bathroom and slit her throat open using a sharp object. When she did not open the door for a long time, her friend knocked on the door and Joshi opened it. However, she collapsed immediately due to excessive bleeding" explained DCP Satya Narayan Chaudhry after Joshi was rushed to Kokilaben Hospital in Andheri where she was pronounced dead.

However, what has brought Bollywood under scanner yet again is that the actress was reported to be depressed about not getting good offers, deteriorating financial health and a freak molestation incident. As an affirmation to the speculations, Joshi herself admitted to the cause of her depressed state in a mobile audio recording, moments before she slit her throat open with a kitchen knife and passed out.

"In 2011, the actress had filed a complaint alleging that a Khar cosmetic surgeon molested her when she went for a check-up after getting breast implants. Two years later, Shikha and her brother were arrested for allegedly hurling stones at the doctor's residence", said Joshi's flatmate Madhu Bharti. According to Bharti, Joshi had shown suicidal symptoms and had confided in her of becoming tired of her life and that nobody should be blamed for her death. Madhu also claimed that Shikha had been drinking on Saturday afternoon.
