Are vested interests suppressing the pregnancy angle in actor Tunisha Sharma’s suicide case? Was she murdered?

MUMBAI: Responding to the latest news reports that Tv actor Tunisha Sharma was not pregnant and died due to suffocation caused by hanging, actor Rayya Labib who knew Tv actor Tunisha Sharma for the last 2-3 years and even interacted with her several times at a beauty parlour in Mumbai, questioned if there were vested interests who were suppressing the possibility of the pregnancy angle and changing the narrative.

Rayya demanded that the police should investigate both the possibilities – suicide and murder. “The doctors should conduct further tests including chemical or viscera analysis and conduct further tests to determine if she was really pregnant or not. One must not rule out anything at this stage, because Tunisha was not new to the film industry. She may be 20 or 22 years of age, but she has been acting since the time she was a child and was not a novice or a fresher. It is very surprising that she would commit suicide just like that,” Rayya said.

On Saturday evening Rayya told this reporter that Tunisha looked “depressed and worried when she met her last.

She even confirmed that there was a 95 to 98 percent possibility that Tunisha was pregnant and did not want to abort her pregnancy, but instead wanted to get married to her boyfriend and lover – her co-star Sheezan Khan, who unfortunately was not interested in marriage at this stage, because he felt Tunisha Sharma was still young and should concentrate on her career. “I am not hundred percent sure about the pregnancy issue, but there is a very high possibility that she could be pregnant, which was the cause of the big fight,” Rayya clarified.

“When I met her last, she said she was very worried about something important and serious. I did not ask her what it was, but I am sure it was about this relationship and pregnancy issue,” Rayya revealed, adding that while Tunisha was normally bubbly and chirpy, she would lapse into bouts of depression and anxiety.

“I personally feel Sheezan was playing with her emotions. He was not serious about the relationship on a long-term basis. He maybe just considered it a fling or was flirting with her or having fun. Tunisha was very serious about Sheezan and wanted marriage,” Rayya explained.

“She did not say exactly what was the problem, but I could sense that all was not well in her life. She once said that she was in a one-sided relationship. I did not probe too much. But I realized that there was a love angle or love triangle. There were problems in her love life. She was also depressed about a death in her family.”

According to Rayya, “She was otherwise chirpy and bubbly, but at times would suddenly go very quiet. At the parlour, we were normally together for 3-4 hours at a stretch and while she was talking and seemed very happy one hour, the next hour she seemed to slip in a tense and worried mood. I think her work schedules were also taking a toll on her personal and emotional life,” Rayya explained.
