Rao is now back home and recuperating. Breaking his silence on the harrowing ordeal he faced of attempting suicide, Tirthanand said, “When the cops called her, she just said ‘Let him die, I was anyways leaving him’ and hung up the phone. She has filed several false cases against me and demands money and valuable things in return when I ask her to withdraw the fake cases.”
He further said, “The poison spread all across the body, but it was thankfully treated in time. I am ashamed of my actions, but I had no option left. I just want that woman to withdraw her fake cases and set me free from all this. I have spent all my money, and I cannot even concentrate on my work.”
Rao also said that the woman wants a portion of his house and recently he gifted her a phone worth Rs 2 Lakhs.
This is not the first time the comedian has attempted suicide. In December 2022, Rao, who was fed up with the COVID-19 pandemic and poverty, drank a bottle of poison to end his life and was rushed to the hospital.
Tirthanand Rao has also featured in a few episodes on Wagle Ki Duniya and is popular for mimicking actor Nana Patekar.
