New Delhi: Television actress Tunisha Sharma was found dead on December 24 on the set of her TV show. Her former boyfriend and co-star Sheezan Khan was arrested on abetment to suicide charges and later sent to judicial custody till January 13 after her mother Vanita Sharma filed a complaint against him. They had broken up a fortnight before her death. Since then both Tunisha and Sheezan’s families have levelled allegations against each other.
Now Tunisha’s friend and co-actor Sonia Singh has spoken about the actress and how she often didn’t have money with her. She also said that when they met on December 14, she spoke about Sheezan Khan.
In an interview with AajTak, Sonia Singh said, “Tunisha would call me whenever she was free. For the past few days, she was troubled and we spoke less in December. When we met on December 14, she claimed that Sheezan had said he needed some space and did not like me talking about love all the time. I explained that such things happen in a relationship. Tunisha often would not have money. Very recently, she asked me to lend her Rs 3000 and I asked her what had happened that she did not even have the amount.”
Sonia also revealed that Tunisha had called her a day before her death. Tunisha had asked her to tell her mother, Vanita Sharma, that she was with her if she called.
She also said in the interview that Tunisha considered Sheezan’s family as her own. “Tunisha had started considering Sheezan’s family her own. She would call them Ammi and Appi, which sounded okay to me because she was considering the family of the one she loved as her own,” she told Aaj Tak.
Earlier, Sheezan Khan’s sisters Falaq Naaz and Shafaq Naaz and mother Kehkeshan Kaifi had held a press conference claiming his innocence. They had also said that Tunisha’s mother controlled her finances and she often had no money with her.
