who played the male lead opposite Pallavi in Ami Sirajer Begam is shocked by the news. “She was a wonderful human being and a nice co-actor. I still can’t believe this happened,” said Sean.
Joyjit Banerjee, who worked with her on Wednesday for Mon Mane Na, said, “Her first serial Resham Jhapi was with me. I was there when she auditioned for the role in the serial. I have seen her over the years and never felt there was anything wrong or that she was going through any problems or depression. She even posted a story 18 hours back on Facebook. I hope the police will do the needful and the truth will come out.”
