In a recent interview, Zarina Wahab, mother of actor Sooraj Pancholi, discussed the tragic death of actress Jiah Khan, revealing that Jiah had attempted suicide multiple times before her fatal incident. According to Wahab, Jiah had tried to take her own life 4-5 times before her relationship with Sooraj Pancholi escalated. She referred to it as “destiny” that the fatal incident occurred when Sooraj’s turn came.
Zarina also reflected on the professional setbacks her son faced due to the case, noting that Sooraj’s career was severely impacted. Despite this, she expressed her belief in karma and shared that it took 10 years for her son to be acquitted from the charges of abetment to suicide, a case that had drawn significant media attention.
Sooraj was acquitted in 2023 after a long legal battle, during which the case against him was based on a suicide note Jiah allegedly left behind, accusing him of mental and physical abuse.
. The tragic story, still a subject of intense debate, continues to affect those involved.
