I'm not a coward to attempt suicide: Shruthi

Actress Shruthi was recently admitted to a private hospital in Basaveshwara Nagar, Bangalore, due to food poisoning. Her being admitted to the hospital made media and gossip mongers to speculate that the actress tried to commit suicide because of troubles in her personal life.

In the recent months, Shruthi's personal life has hit all time low. Her second marriage with journalist Chandrachuda Chakravarthy is now in the court, after her husband's first wife Manjula moved the court claiming that her husband has not sought a divorce from her. Manjula pleaded the court to declare his second marriage null and void. Her marriage issue was blown out of proportion.

These factors made media and rumour mills to falsely spread that Shruthi tried to commit suicide. However, after getting discharge from the hospital, she denied the rumours.

She says, "I agree that I am going through tough phase, but I am not a coward to attempt suicide. I was admitted due to food poisoning." Continue reading the story on the slideshow...
