The news of television actress Tunisha Sharma's demise has shocked the whole entertainment industry. Many well-known TV stars are grieving the passing of the Ali Baba actress. In a recent interview, Neha Mehta from TMKOC discussed Sharma's death, saying that it reminded her of the death of actress Pratyusha Banerjee.

The Balika Vadhu actress was found hanged in her Mumbai flat in 2016. Banerjee's postmortem report stated that suffocation was the cause of her death. However, the actress's parents say Banerjee was murdered by her lover and have filed accusations against him.

Neha had visited Banerjee's sets just days before her death. The Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah actress recalls Banerjee asking for a hug. She stated “This incident reminded me of the Balika Vadhu girl, Pratyusha Banerjee and she was desperate for a hug”. In a similar vein, she met Sharma by chance in a clinic a few months ago. At the time, Sharma described herself as a fan of Neha Mehta, while the latter claimed to be hers. Banerjee was 24 years old when she died in an apparent suicide, while Tunisha Sharma was only 20. Neha Mehta concluded her message by encouraging everyone to maintain contact with their families.


Tunisha Sharma co-starred with Sheezan Khan in ‘Ali Baba: Dastaan-E-Kabul’. The actress was previously involved with Khan, but the couple split up 15 days ago. Sharma was recently admitted to the hospital following an anxiety attack before this incident. The actress' lover, Sheezan Khan, was detained a day after her death when Sharma's mother filed an official report accusing him of abetting suicide.
