Telugu TV actress Sravani, who was currently being seen in the serial Manasu Mamata, has died by suicide. While the reason for her death is still unknown, the police have registered a case and are investigating. According to a report in TV9Telugu, family members allege that Sravani decided to end her life as a result of harassment by Devraj Reddy. Devaraj is said to have harassed Sravani and she committed suicide out of that resentment. Reportefly, Sravani, who was living on the second floor of H56 block in Mathura Nagar under Essar Nagar PS, Hyderabad, died by suicide between 9-10 pm. The body was shifted to Osmania Hospital for postmortem.
While the family alleged that she resorted to the extreme step due to harassment by her former boyfriend Devaraj Reddy, the police said the family had admonished her for moving around with him even after lodging a police case against him a few months ago. S.R. Nagar Circle Inspector Narasimha Reddy said their preliminary investigations revealed that the family members had pulled up Sravani for again moving around with Devaraj and after an argument with her mother and brother over the issue late Tuesday night, she went to her room and hanged herself.
Police sent a team to Andhra Pradesh's Kakinada town to arrest Devaraj. "Since Sravani's family is making an allegation, we will arrest and question him," the Circle Inspector added. The police officer said Devaraj was arrested on a complaint by Sravani in June that he was pestering her to marry him.
The family members alleged that Sravani took the extreme step as police had failed to act on her complaint against Devaraj. Devaraj had come into contact with the actress through Tik-Tok a few months ago. The friendship between the two turned into love.
Sravani's family said he started harassing her for money. Devaraj had threatened to post her personal photographs and videos on social media, the family said. Devaraj had agreed to delete the photographs on payment of Rs 1 lakh and they had paid the money in installments through Google Pay.
However, he allegedly continued to harass her even after receiving Rs 1 lakh and she lodged a complaint against him at the S.R. Nagar police station on June 22. The police, however, claimed that there was no mention of videos and photographs in the complaint.
Sravani had played roles in popular serials like "Manasu Mamatha" and "Mounaragam".
