Columnist and one-time playback singer Varsha Bhosle, daughter of legendary singer Asha Bhosle, was on Monday found dead at her Peddar Road residence with a bullet wound in the head. According to sources, Ms. Varsha shot herself with a licensed pistol.
“The incident occurred around 12.30 p.m. No suicide note has been found yet. We are trying to establish in whose name the pistol was registered, whether it was an imported weapon or not. Things will only be clear after an investigation,” Additional Commissioner of Police (South) Krishna Prakash told The Hindu.
