Television actor Nitin Chauhan, who appeared in shows like ‘MTV Splitsvilla 5’, ‘Crime Patrol’, and ‘Tera Yaar Hoon Main’, has tragically died by suicide. He passed away in Mumbai at the age of 35.
Nitin’s sudden demise has left the TV industry in shock, with many colleagues and friends expressing grief on social media. Sudeep Sahir posted a tribute on his Instagram story, writing, “Rest in peace, buddy.”
Nitin’s father has rushed to Mumbai to claim his son’s body. While speaking to TOI, Nitin’s friend Kuldeep shared, “We came to know today morning when his father and sister called us revealing that Nitin had passed away and they mentioned that the cause of death was suicide. We are equally shocked as he was going to come next month to Delhi and we had plans of going to Khatu Shyam ji’s temple together.”
He added, “Right now we are sitting with his family here, his father has come to Mumbai to bring his mortal remains to Delhi. We are also waiting for him to come here. Uncle’s flight is at 10 pm so mostly by 4-5 am they will arrive. Last month, Nitin had made plans to go to Rajasthan and he would be here every few months. He has been our life, we have so many memories with him. For all our trips, Nitin would make sure that he drove us and kept us comfortable.”
