While Bollywood is still reeling over the sudden death of TV star, Pratyusha Banerjee, where evidence suggests she committed suicide, Priyanka Chopra’s ex-manager Prakash Jaju has come out alleging PC herself attempted to take her own life.
Chopra, a former Miss World, has been in the news these days, with earning much acclaim in Bollywood and Hollywood. However, Jaju says Priyanka struggled a lot in the past. In a series of tweets, Jaju claims the star tried to commit suicide multiple times, but he prevented it.
PC may look very strong now but she was also very vulnerable in struggling days, tried to commit suicide 2-3 times but i managed to stop her

He also claims Priyanka had a tumultuous relationship with her ex, Aseem Merchant and PC drove to Mumbai’s Vasai area to commit suicide, one night after a fight with him. He goes on to say, another time PC tried to jump off a building after Merchant’s mother’s death in 2002, as she was very close to her.

It’s no secret that Chopra and her ex-manager are on terrible terms. PC allegedly abruptly terminated Prakash’s contract and in 2008 Prakash filed a criminal lawsuit against the actress in a Mumbai court. Prakash served 67 days in prison, after Chopra’s father also filed a suit against him for invading his daughter’s privacy.
