Marathi actor Aashutosh Bhakre has reportedly committed suicide on Wednesday. Aashutosh was married to actor Mayuri Deshmukh. A police official told PTI on Wednesday that Aashutosh Bhakre hanged himself at his home in Nanded town in the Marathwada region. He was 32.
As per reports, Bhakre was found hanging by his parents in his flat in the Ganesh Nagar area of the town in central Maharashtra.
Aashutosh Bhakre had been a part of Marathi films such as Bhakar and Ichar Tharla Pakka. Meanwhile, his wife Mayuri shot to fame after her role in Marathi serial Khulta Kali Khulena. She has also worked in 31 Diwas.
The reason behind the actor’s suicide was not yet known, the police official said. He was reportedly suffering from depression since the last few days and had recently shared a video on social media in which he analyzed why a person commits suicide, the official said. An accidental death case has been registered at the Shivaji Nagar Police Station in Nanded, around 575 km from Mumbai.
A Times of India report has quoted PI Anant Narute, Shivaji Nagar police station, Nanded, as saying, “The news came to us around 1.30 pm. We have registered an accidental death report (ADR) as per standard procedure. We have recorded a statement from Aashutosh’s father, and he hasn’t blamed anyone for what happened. We haven’t spoken to any other family members as they are still coming to terms with the loss.”
We pray for the family of the deceased in such tough times.
