In
what
came
as
one
of
the
most
heartbreaking
news
from
the
Tamil
film
industry,
Vijay
Antony's
elder
daughter
Meera
died
by
suicide.
According
to
media
reports,
the
16
year
old
was
found
dead
in
their
Chennai
suicide.
The
media
reports
also
suggested
Meera
was
battling
stress
which
is
said
to
be
the
main
reason
behind
her
drastic
step.
As
condolence
messages
have
been
pouring
in
from
all
corners
of
the
world,
it
was
reported
that
Meera's
last
rites
will
be
taking
place
on
Wednesday
at
Kilpakkam
cemetery.
The
reports
further
suggested
Meera's
funeral
will
take
place
as
per
Christian
rituals.
As
per
the
recent
update,
Vijay
Antony
was
inconsolable
during
his
daughter's
funeral.
In
fact,
his
wife
Fatima
was
also
finding
it
difficult
to
control
her
tears
as
the
couple
bid
adieu
to
Meera.
To
note,
they
had
arrived
to
the
cemetery
in
the
ambulance
that
had
the
message
'Meera
Vijay
Anthony....
RIP" flashing
on
it.
Needless
to
say,
it
is
a
difficult
moment
for
Vijay
Anthony
and
his
family.
Meanwhile,
as
Meera's
death
case
is
being
investigated
by
the
cops,
it
is
reported
that
they
are
questioning
Meera's
teachers
and
friends
to
know
the
exact
cause
behind
her
drastic
step.
Besides,
Meera's
mobile
phone
is
also
being
examined.
On
the
other
hand,
as
per
a
report
published
in
Filmibeat
Tamil,
Meera's
friends
stated
that
they
had
no
clue
about
Meera
battling
stress
and
also
emphasised
that
they
would
have
comforted
her
if
there
were
any
signs
of
any
mental
health
issue.
While
everyone
has
been
in
shock,
Meera's
school
friends
have
been
missing
their
friend.
Talking
about
the
working
front,
Vijay
