MUMBAI: The industry woke up to the shocking news of Kushal Punjabi’s untimely demise. The actor, who was last seen in Colors’ Ishq Mein Marjawan died at the age of 37.

Actor Karanvir Bohra announced about this death on his social media handle.

Being a fitness enthusiast and generally very positive and happy in life, many wondered what must have gone wrong and wondered about the cause of his death. It was later revealed in media that the actor was found hanging at his Pali Hill residence and that the cops have found a suicide note at his residence.

The Accidental Death Report (ADR) has been filed and further investigation is underway.

Reports also state that in his suicide note, Kushal has mentioned that no one should be held responsible for his extreme step. His suicide note also mentioned that 50 per cent of his property/assets should be equally distributed among his parents and sister, and the remaining 50 per cent should be given to his three-year-old son Kian.

TellyChakkar has learnt that apparently Kushal’s father was the first one to witness his son in such a state.

Apparently, the doubt arised when his father tried reaching out to him. After several attempts when his calls to Kushal went unanswered he decided to visit him. On reaching his residence, when Kushal did not open the door his father called a key maker and when the door finally opened Kushal's father was in a state of shock as he apparently found Kushal hanging in his living room. This incident transpired at around 11pm yesterday (26 December).

Kushal’s wife Audrey Dolhen stays along with son Kian in Shanghai. She is expected to arrive in India today.
