According to a report by the Guardian,  her body was discovered hanging in her Mumbai home.  No suicide note was found, but police suspect the actress took her own life.

The British Indian actress made her debut in 2007’s Nishabd, a romantic drama that was heavily influenced by the book Lolita and the Oscar-winning film American Beauty.

Khan last appeared in the 2010 comedy Houseful, and appeared in the 2008 thriller Ghajini.

It’s sad to see such talent laid to rest at such a young age.
