Reportedly the actress hanged herself last night (May 25). However, her family found her body only in the morning. While she was immediately rushed to the hospital but unfortunately she was declared dead by that time.

Before taking the drastic step, Preksha left a chilling message on her Instagram stories where she wrote, “The worst is when your dreams die

Hira Nagar police station incharge Rajeev Bhadoriya talking about her suicide was quoted saying as, “Preksha was a TV actor and was in the city since the lockdown. We are investigating the case further to know the reason of her suicide.”

Reportedly, the actress had moved to Mumbai two years ago and she was apparently worried about not getting any work after the end of the lockdown. She had moved to her hometown when the lockdown was brought in force.

In recent times, this is the second suicide in the industry after ‘Aadat Se Majboor’ actor Manmeet Grewal committed suicide as he was in depression owing to the financial woes caused by the lockdown.

We offer our heartfelt condolences to Preksha’s family and friends. RIP.
