In a shocking incident, a Marathi filmmaker, Atul B. Tapkir committed suicide in a hotel in Pune, Maharashtra. Before bidding his final goodbye to the world he wrote a Facebook post, yesterday night around 12. In his post, he clearly mentioned that he has decided to end his life.

His post that was written in Marathi, stated that he was going through very tough times, both professionally and personally. He revealed that after he produced the film 'Dhol Taashe', he went into losses, his father and sister backed him and he alleged that his wife started abusing and harassing him.

He also revealed that his wife threw him out of the house, abused and defamed him in the neighborhood. She also separated him from his children and sent her brothers to beat him up.

He further stated that one day when he called his wife and abused her, she abused him back. She filed a police complaint against him. With regards to that incident, Tapkir has urged Maharashtra CM Davendra Fadnavis to make sure that: "THE POLICE MUST LISTEN TO A MAN'S SIDE OF THE STORY TOO WHEN A WOMAN LODGES A COMPLAINT."

He also expressed that his last wish was that his children should be raised by his father, not by his wife. On a concluding note, he said that he had a proof of the harassment he suffered, in a pen drive.

We pray for his departed soul to rest in peace. And we also urge everyone out there to please come forward and help people in need. If you know anyone suffering from depression please extend your support and let them know that ending the precious life given by the almighty is never the solution.
