Divya Bharti had no 'problems', says Kamal Sadanah

In a conversation with Siddharth Kannan, Kamal discussed the tough moment when he learned about the death of his co-star and close friend, Divya Bharti. Recalled as one of the most horrifying moments in Indian film history, millions of Divya's admirers are still interested in learning the truth about what ‘really killed’ her. Speaking about the same, Kamal refuted reports that speculated Divya had committed suicide and suggested that instead, she may have fallen from the balcony due to alcohol.

The actor said, “My belief was she had a couple of drinks at that time and she was just farting around. I think she was in that energy and she slipped. I truly believe it was just an accident. I mean I was just shooting with her you know till a few days before and she was fine. There were no problems with her. She had great films which she had completed. She had her whole lineup of films she was being signed for.”

Even though many were skeptical about whether she committed suicide or was murdered, the actress' father reportedly stated that Divya's death was an accident.
