They say love is blind. Sometimes parents become enemies if they dare to advise.

When a girl or boy earns good money, independent and major, parents cant order them or control them or even advise them. The girl or boy think that their parents are old fashioned control freaks and they dont have any idea about love. As they are no more dependent on parents, the boy or girl start questioning parent's rights to tell them what to do and what not to do. They resent interference. They will not even allow them to live with them and traditional parents will be ashamed to live with their children if they are into live in relationship. Even progressive parents are not comfortable with this.

I have seen many cases where the parents just stopped interfering and most of them readily helped their kids when they were in soup. Afterall it is their children and they have brought them into this cruel world and they will be responsible for them even if their wards stop listening to them. Unconditional love from parents. When these rebellious children themselves become parents, then they will realise what their own parents underwent. This is a circle. Sometimes kids comeback realising their mistakes. Sometimes they dont.

There are selfish parents who push their children into show business without realising the consequences. They are lured by money and glamour. Sometimes their gamble pays off and sometimes they land in deep trouble.

@Hina... thanks for posting what BV co-stars had to say about Prats

She was well like among her co-stars and shared great rapport with Anoop, Smita, Neha, Shanky and Sid. All these people are so well balanced and composed in their real lives. How could a girl with so much of great support and friends like above, think of taking away her life?

She had even other good friends from the industry. Just talking to anyone of them would have helped so much...

Wonder why she had to take such drastic step?

This step of Prats is so shocking and hard to digest.

I wish people stop taking their lives just because they had problems. They don't realise how their decisions ruin the lives of their family members / loved ones


@ bold that is the main problem she hadnt met these actors/costars friends since a long time. She obviously though had contact with them they were not in that circle of friendship with her where they knew what was happenning in her personal life. I think she shouldnt have done big boss got into the wrong type of company. Some of her friends from there say she was having issues with her boyfriend. what were they doing? they could have at least called her parents up and told them to come & take care of her.
I dont think her parents knew anything as they are claiming now. if u rem initially the police said parents are not blaming rahul. however shocked a parent is if they knew rahul was troubling pratusha i dont think they would have initially said that. it was obviously her friends who have updated them on all this

Reading all updates.
I think Pratyusha was living a terrible life with that douche Rahul. How hard is it to move out of a relationship? Come on, it was not a marriage where you need to file a divorce. Just say Good Bye, tell him not to show his face again, and leave him forever.

Kamya who was in delhi told her to wait for her till 4th april and even asked her to go and stay at her home, but Pratyusha refused.

She had a superb friend group who would have helped her in any problem, she just needed to call them. Obviously, No one would come without invitation because people had no idea whether Pratyusha would appreciate it or not? Just one night before her death she called one of her friend and said she wanted to fight back. She didnt give chance to her friends to stand with her in fighting back.

She lost contact with Shashank too.

Its wrong to blame every Tom, dick and harry for her death, Pratyusha herself got involved in all these, and she was so much emotionally invested in a relationship which was hard for her to come out. She might be damn serious about him, and for him it was just another fling or time pass.

But, I wonder why did she kill herself? It was just a mistake of a moment where she ended up doing in anger OR she thought Death was better than coming out a relationship?

Few people like Rakhi, Dolly and Saara are really taking advantage, they cant stop their attention seeking antics even at funeral of someone. They are big shame in the name of humanity.

Pratyusha Banerjee suicide: Actress' mother claims Rahul used to beat her daughter


Apr 06, 2016 - Ashita Dadheech |

Soma Mukherjee, the mother of model-actress Pratyusha Banerjee, who committed suicide, has said in her police complaint that her daughter's boyfriend Rahul Raj Singh used to beat Pratyusha often and that he had lied to her about having a huge bank balance and properties.

Soma said Pratyusha was a top star before Rahul entered her life but that the "very day Rahul entered her life, her life became miserable." Pratyusha, who is famous for her role on the Balika Vadhu television serial was staying in Oshiwara area at that time but later moved to Kandivali, her mother said. Soma used to stay with her often, but when Rahul entered Pratyusha's life, he warned her to stay away from her parents, after which Pratyusha sent her mother back to Jamshedpur, the complaint said.

Soma also told officials that Rahul had met Pratyusha at a party in Jamshedpur and they both eventually fell in love.

Rahul told Pratyusha that he had a good relationship with few political leaders and had a huge bank balance and property in Ranchi, his home town. But all these claims later turned out to be fake, due to which Pratyusha got very disheartened. But as she wanted to save her relationship with Rahul, she continued staying with him, Soma said.

A day before her death she had called her uncle and father to inform that her life was very difficult, Soma said.

According to police sources, officials also came to know that in Kandivali where Pratyusha and Rahul were staying together before, locals had once heard Pratyusha screaming after Rahul had pushed her.

Meanwhile, actor Rakhi Sawant, a close friend of Pratyusha, has said the Balika Vadhu star was "tensed" about her relationship with Rahul.

Ms Sawant on Tuesday alleged that Rahul's ex-girlfriend had forwarded an intimate video of him and herself to Pratyusha. Ms Sawant said Pratyusha was upset because of the video, and it might have led her to commit suicide.

Meanwhile Geeta Rajpal, another of Pratyusha's friends, has claimed that Rahul used to monitor Pratyusha's mobile phone and every time she wanted to speak to a friend, she had to go out to make the call.

On Tuesday some actors organised a prayer meet for Pratyusha and after the meet they told the media that Rahul had physically assaulted her and she never faced financial problems.


I don't understand her mother's barbs.
Why is she telling the world that her daughter was abused by her lover?

And if he did, why did she live with him? Did he point a gun at her and made her live with him? Did he lock her up in the house when he left for work?

Any sensible girl would instantly leave him the first time he physically assaulted her. I cant imagine someone choosing to spend entire life with a man who was abusive towards her even before marriage.

Red Bold - Her mother is indirectly telling that pratyusa fell for his wealth, not him... so when she came to know he was nothing, she was disheartened... But by choosing to live with him, she was obliging him in some way.

By telling such horrible stories of her daughter in public, she is making a fool of her dead daughter.

After seeing Pratyusha of BV - the bubbly, chirpy girl who shared an awesome rapport with her co-stars, I never liked Prats stepping up for BB.


In my personal view (and no offence as this is strictly personal), I think people should only choose BB if they want to deliberately lose their sanity. Three months in one house, living with all sorts of weird personalities, and maintaining an aimless existence is beyond me. I don't know how this show works, when all people do is play weird politics to keep their position.

So yes, I never liked Prats signing up for BB, as I thought she had a great career ahead of her. But then, she had just walked out of BV in those days, and may be she needed BB to keep her on TV.

Anyways, what has happened has happened. More than Rahul, I think BB was a mistake. She was only so young and naive in the industry. And at that point doing BB was like falling into dark hole. She landed herself into wrong influence, plus the pressure from industry etc.

My personal view is - we should not discuss who was guilty, what happened etc. (not asking others to stop posting their own view but to just share what I think about this issue).
Whatever happened is unfortunate - a young life ended. It is very easy to discuss a track in a serial - we know what happened - and we cannot assume what were the circumstances other than those shown in episodes. But in real life - there are layers of truths and only the concerned persons know about it. It appears that the concerned people are either saving their own skin or blaming others. Perhaps very similar to many tracks in BV - everyone (including Pratyusha) was guilty of something somewhere. It cannot be that the BF only was wrong - the parents and Prats also should share the blame. In marriage, especially if it is arranged marriage - the girl has to compromise too much to save the marriage. But if a girl compromises so much in a live-in relationship - perhaps she was also guilty for something somewhere - maybe desperate for a relationship (very unusual considering she was so young - girls that age focus more on career than getting into relationship). We will never know what her compulsions, her majboori was - but how can a girl agree to cut off from friends and parents just for a live-in relationship that is also abusive?

Like @Shinya said - her mother telling about what Rahul told to Prats is in fact degrading the departed young actor. Was she after money and power and when she found out that it was an illusion, she ended her life? Why did parents remained silent till the end? No parent will keep quite if their child is in such a condition, were they waiting for this day to come out in public to gain sympathy or just to punish the boy?

I think there is a need for counselling of very young actors who get name, fame and money at a very young age, while some manage well, some others cannot - there are examples in Bollywood and Hollywood and even sports persons who could not handle all that so early in their life and destroyed their life. And maybe because I am old fashioned - but live-in relationship is not good, especially when some young girl remain in abusive relationship as if they were married and there is no way out.

@SPuja: I agree with your opinion. You need a certain kind of thinking while being in a live-in relationship. Most of people who opt for live-in relationship simply chose to do so because they wish to know more about their partner but also fear social and legal commitment like marriage or just wish to have an easy way out of the relationship if things take a negative turn. In my opinion, one should only chose live-in relationship if they have a back-up plan like some close relative or family in the same city. Pratyusha had none of it. Although her friends did provide support to her, one cannot depend on friends as they can on family.

Pratyusha is dead and people are killing her again and again with their judgements around. Show some compassionate towards her as she is not alive to defend herself. There are millions of people around the world like me who love her irrespective of the way she is.

If we cannot mourn her death then atleast we can wait for the exact truth to come out.

I request the mods to look into the matter and respect the soul of the deceased.

I agree. It is harsh to judge when we are still mourning. Shobhaa de also expressed the same feelings when she wrote about Pratyusha.
