It
has
been
two
years
since
VJ
Chitra
reportedly
died
by
suicide.
She
breathed
her
last
on
December
9,
2020
and
her
body
was
found
hanging
in
the
bathroom
of
a
hotel
room.
As
the
mystery
around
her
death
is
still
not
solved,
her
close
friend
and
small
screen
actor
Sharanya
has
opened
up
for
the
first
time
about
what
happened
the
night
before
Chitra
died.
In
an
interview
with
Behindwoods,
Sharanya
said
that
Chitra
showed
her
the
new
Audi
car
that
she
bought
and
revealed
that
she
registered
her
marriage
with
Hemanth.
Sharanya
stated
that
Chitra
also
spoke
about
getting
married
in
a
ceremony
to
announce
the
news
to
her
fans
and
followers.
Sharanya
said,
"Chitra
said
that
her
husband
was
violent
at
times
and
he
was
not
a
fan
of
her
career.
When
I
asked
her
how
would
she
manage
such
violent
behavior,
she
brushed
it
off
with
a
smile
and
said
she
will
manage."
She
added,
"She
kept
on
signing
something
on
the
sets
the
day
before
she
took
the
extreme
decision.
When
I
asked
what
she
was
doing,
she
did
not
reveal
anything.
And
when
we
were
in
her
new
car,
she
held
my
hand
and
told
me
that
she
has
a
lot
of
things
to
say.
She
cried
on
my
lap.
But
since
I
was
getting
ready
for
a
wedding
in
Vellore,
I
did
my
best
to
console
and
send
her
back
to
the
sets.
But
I
never
anticipated
that
she
would
take
such
a
decision."
"Chitra's
death
caused
me
a
mental
trauma
and
I
have
still
not
come
out
of
it.
I
started
stuttering
and
I'm
not
able
to
speak
continuously
like
I
used
to
do
whenever
I'm
under
stress," Sharanya
said.
Though
in
its
initial
investigation
the
police
found
her
death
to
be
a
suicide
case,
later
Hemanth
was
arrested
based
on
the
complaint
of
Chitra's
parents.
Chitra
was
a
popular
name
in
the
Tamil
television
industry
and
she
rose
to
popularity
with
the
Vijay
television's
soap
opera
Pandian
Stores.
She
made
her
debut
in
the
film
industry
with
Calls,
which
was
released
in
2021
after
her
death.
