“All these senseless suicides which achieve nothing! Life is God’s gift for us to live not for us to take at will. We have no right to do that. One must learn to overcome all odds & emerge successful, not succumb under pressure & give up easily. The world admires a fighter not a loser,” she posted on Twitter.

Then it is forgotten.” (Also Read: Rahul Raj Singh cheated on 'Balika Vadhu' actress Pratyusha Banerjee?)
