Famous TV host, RJ from Assam Vidisha Baruah commits suicide in Gurgaon apartment

A TV host and radio jockey from Assam who resided in Mumbai allegedly committed suicide in an upscale residential colony in Gurugram on Monday evening, police said.

The deceased, identified as Vidisha Ved Baruah (30), was a noted personality in the TV industry and hosted many stage shows as well in Mumbai and other cities. Police said she had come from Mumbai to Gurugram just a day earlier on Sunday with an intention to settle here. Her husband Mitish Baruah was in Mumbai at the time of the incident. Deepak Saharan, DCP (East), Gurugram, told Mail Today that she was found hanging from the ceiling fan of an accommodation she had rented recently.

"Her father suspected something was wrong as she did not take calls. He approached Gurugram police and gave us her address" Saharan said.

"Her father said in his complaint that Vidisha and Mitish had a love marriage a year ago, but thereafter, they often indulged in quarrels. He feels another quarrel might have prompted her to take the extreme step," Saharan said.
