On Friday, March 1, actress and former Bigg Boss contestant Devoleena Bhattacharjee told her social media followers that her friend Amarnath Ghosh was shot and killed on Tuesday night in the US. In a lengthy message posted on her official X account, the actress asked Prime Minister Narendra Modi and India’s Minister of External Affairs, Dr. S. Jaishankar, to see what they can do for the justice.
Devoleena added that it’s still unknown why her friend was killed.
“My friend #Amarnathghosh was shot & killed in St louis academy neighbourhood, US on Tuesday evening. Only child in the family, mother died 3 years back. Father passed away during his childhood,” she wrote.
The TV actress added, “Well the reason, accused details everything is not revealed yet or perhaps no one left in his family to fight for it except his few friends. He was from Kolkata. Excellent dancer, was pursuing PHD, was taking an evening walk and suddenly he was shot multiple times by an unknown. Some friends in US are trying to claim the body but still no update about it. @IndianEmbassyUS kindly see to it if you could. At least we should know the reason of his murder. @DrSJaishankar @narendramodi.”
Devoleena uses social media quite a bit, and she frequently expresses her opinions on a range of topics.
On the professional front, Devoleena became well-known for her portrayal of the submissive Gopi Bahu in the popular daily soap opera Saath Nibhaana Saathiya.
