Kapil Sharma's Co-Star Tirthanand Rao Attempts SUICIDE In Facebook Live, Drinks Poison; Actor Alleges Live-In Partner Blackmailed Him-Reports
In a shocking twist of turns, actor-comedian Tirthanand Rao attempted suicide by drinking poison during a live session on his Facebook page. He blamed his live-in-partner for his disturbed state of mind and accused her of “emotionally blackmailing him. Tirthanand, who has worked with Kapil Sharma in ‘Comedy Circus Ke Ajoobe’, left fans shocked when he tried committing suicide. He told fans that he was in a “live-in” with the woman but she “emotionally blackmailed” him.

Tirthanand also accused the woman of pushing him into debt by extorting money from him. In the viral clip, the actor was heard saying, “I am in debt of Rs 3-4 lakh because of this woman. I have known her since October last year. She had filed a police complaint against me in Bhayandar (a western suburb in Mumbai) and I didn’t even know for what reason. Then she would also call me and say she wanted to meet.” While he was sharing his ordeal, the actor picked up the bottle of insect repellant and drank it after pouring it into a glass. Tirthanand also broke down in tears.


His friends, who saw him taking the extreme step in a live session, immediately rushed to his house where he was lying unconscious. They called the police and Tirthanand was rushed to the hospital. This is not the first time when Rao had attempted suicide. Earlier in 2021, he did a live session on Facebook and called up his assistant informing him about taking the drastic step of ending his life due to financial reasons. 

In an interview with a portal, Tirthanand Rao had earlier opened up about his financial condition and said from the past two years, his financial status is in shambles as he is left with no savings. He revealed he did a film called Pav Bhaji which is yet to release but they haven’t paid him and so have the makers of his recent web series. “There have been days when I haven’t eaten anything or just survived on one vada pav. I realised the only way out of this mess is to end up my life,” Tirthanand had said.
