Jiah Khan sad song was sung when she was in her teenage. While teenage time is supposed to associate with delightful music, the haunting melody of this Jiah Khan song makes us remember her so much. It strongly reminds everyone of her untimely death whenever listening to the song.

7 years ago, also in June, the whole industry was put in extreme shock by the demise of young Bollywood star Jiah Khan. Many found a lot of similarities between the deaths of Jiah and Sushant Singh Rajput who recently ended his life by committing suicide on June 13, 2020. They were found dead at their residence in Mumbai by hanging themselves.

At around 9 pm on that day, her mother left the actress alone in their apartment as she had dinner with friends. However, when she returned home at 11.20 pm and found her daughter hanging from a ceiling fan. Her body was still warm, she screamed for help but the 25-year-old starlet was gone.

Initially, the police didn’t find a suicide note but one week later her sister Kavita found a six-page handwriting letter. The letter with no date noted wasn’t addressed to anyone but her boyfriend, Sooraj Pancholi, who is the son of two Bollywood big names Aditya Pancholi and Zarina Wahab.

However, her mother didn’t believe it was a suicide as she continued to claim that her daughter had been murdered instead of what the police had affirmed. And the murderer she thought would be her boyfriend, Sooraj Pancholi. After almost five years, on January 31, 2018, the Mumbai court charged Sooraj with abetting the suicide of Jiah Khan. Of course, the case hadn’t been settled yet until now.
