Feb 07: Former actor Kunal Singh was found dead early this morning at his Vindermayor residence in Oshiwara. The actor took his life by hanging himself to the ceiling fan on Wednesday evening. An actor whose sole claim to fame was "Dil Hi Dil Mein" opposite Sonali Bendre, left no suicide note behind explaining the cause of such an action. Kunal had also been seen in a few regional movies down South. Not being able to make it big in the cinema world has been looked upon as a potential reason for the actor’s desperate act. His friend, Laveena, was present when the incident took place, she however claimed not to have witnessed anything as she had gone to the bathroom. His wife, Anu, was not present at the spot as she was visiting her parents in Ahmednagar. The actor is survived by his wife, two children and his father who is a colonel with the Army. The police are investigating the matter and have asked the family to offer their support for uncovering the reason behind the suicide.

Actor Kunal Singh's father has refused to believe that his son has committed suicide. The father said that he suspected some foul play in his son's untimely death. Kunal's father, who is a Colonel with the Indian Army, has claimed that his son was murdered."Kunal will not do a thing like this. My son is a very brave boy. He has been a very good polo player. He is very good karate expert. And not only that he's been a lovely son, a great husband, he's been a great father to his children. Kunal was very happy and was making a movie called 'Yogi' and on 15th of this month they were going to shoot the final part of it. Kunal was playing the main lead along with three females and apart from that he also had the producer's role. So I suspect there is some foul play," the bereaved father said. The actor's wife and his two children had left Mumbai last week for her father's residence in Ahmednagar where she was seeking medical treatment for her younger daughter. She was supposed to return to Kunal on Saturday. Singh had acted in the Bollywood film 'Dil Hi Dil Mein' with actor Sonali Bhendre. He had also starred in the Tamil flick Parvai Ondre Podhume with Monal, who strangely committed suicide in 2002.
