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.
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.
