Pune: Marathi film producer Atul B Tapkir was found dead at a luxury hotel in Pune on Sunday morning, police said. He was 35. A post on Tapkir's Facebook page indicates he was disturbed over financial loss in filmmaking and a troubled family life. Police had to break open the hotel room where they found Tapkir's body.
A case of accidental death (ADR) has been registered by the Deccan Gymkhana Police Station, and the body has been sent for an autopsy, a police official told IANS.
One of the last 'suicidal' messages posted on Tapkir's Facebook page on Saturday suggests he was depressed over the financial losses he suffered by producing Marathi film "Dhol Taashe".
Tapkir said his wife threw him out of their home, and he was living out of the house since six months.
Tapkir's post -- written in Marathi -- mentioned that his wife got her "so-called" brothers to threaten and beat him up.
Tapkir has urged Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis that "the police must listen to a man's side of the story too when a woman lodges a complaint".
As proof of the harassment he faced, Tapkir said he has saved in a pen drive, the incident when his wife's brother hurled abuses at him.
