Actor Tunisha Sharma's Mother Alleges Sheezan Khan "Cheated, Used Her"

New Delhi:

TV actor Tunisha Sharma was "cheated and used" by her co-star Sheezan Khan, her mother has alleged days after the 20-year-old was found dead on the set of a show she was shooting for.

Khan was arrested yesterday under charges of abetment to suicide after Tunisha's mother filed a complaint against him. According to the First Information Report (FIR), the two actors, who were in a relationship, broke up 15 days back. It is being suspected that this left Tunisha upset and pushed her to the edge.

In a video message, Tunisha's mother Vanita alleged that Sheezan had promised to marry the 20-year-old actor, but then broke up with her. "Despite being involved with another woman, he continued a relationship with Tunisha. He used her for three-four months. I just want to say that Sheezan should be punished, he should not be spared. I have lost my child," a distraught Vanita said. She also thanked the media for its support.

The TV actor allegedly died by suicide during a shoot at Vasai near Mumbai. She was shooting for a TV show 'Ali Baba: Dastaan-E-Kabul', also starring Khan. Tunisha was found hanging inside a washroom and rushed to a hospital, where she was declared dead.

Tunisha Sharma started her acting career with a role in Bharat Ka Veer Putra Maharana Pratap that premiered in 2013. Besides starring in several TV shows, she has acted in Bollywood movies Fitoor, Baar Baar Dekho and Kahaani 2.

The young actor's death has triggered allegations of so-called "love jihad", but police have said the probe so far does not point to any such angle.

Maharashtra minister and BJP leader Girish Mahajan is among those who have said that this is a case of "love jihad" -- a term used by certain radical Hindu groups to suggest that Muslim men often seek to deceive Hindu women through marriage and convert them.

Mr Mahajan also stressed that the Eknath Shinde-led coalition government is planning to bring a strict law against "love jihad".

North Korea test-fired a new generation of strategic cruise missile on Wednesday. (Representational) Seoul: North Korea fired several cruise missiles towards the Yellow Sea on Wednesday, Seoul's military said, the latest in a series of tension-raising moves by the nuclear-armed state.

Pyongyang has accelerated weapons testing in the new year, including tests of what it called an "underwater nuclear weapon system" and a solid-fuelled hypersonic ballistic missile. "Our military detected several cruise missiles launched by North Korea towards the Yellow Sea at around 7:00 am today," the South Korean Joint Chiefs of Staff said in a statement. Unlike their ballistic counterparts, the testing of cruise missiles is not banned under current UN sanctions against Pyongyang. Cruise...

"Jaiswal Has Run Ahead Of Gill": Ex-India Star's Massive T20 WC Verdict

Former India opener Aakash Chopra has suggested that Yashasvi Jaiswal is slightly ahead of Shubman Gill in the pecking order as captain Rohit Sharma's partner at the top in T20Is. Since making his debut last year, Jaiswal has been in stunning form in the shortest format of the game. Gill's form, on the other hand, has dipped since the ODI World Cup last year in India. With the T20 World Cup scheduled to be held later this year, Chopra feels Jaiswal will open the innings with Rohit during the tournament. "It's clear that Yashasvi Jaiswal has run ahead of Shubman Gill. Yashasvi is ahead in the two-horse race, Gill is lagging slightly behind. Gill was played in the first match, dropped in the second, and wasn't played in the third as well," Chopra said on his YouTube channel. Jaiswal helped India beat Afghanistan in the second T20I earlier this week, scoring a quickfire fifty. Considering his recent form across formats, Chopra emphasised that Jaiswal has ...
