Bollywood rapper and dancer Abhijeet Sinde, who has worked with the likes of Ranbir Kapoor, Ranveer Singh and Ajay Devgn, has committed suicide in Mumbai. According to a report in SpotboyE.com, Abhijeet hung himself to a ceiling fan at 6: 30 am and killed himself. He was reportedly suffering from depression. His flat's door was reportedly left open which is how the neighbors were alerted. They informed the police immediately as soon as they found his body.

A police officer was quoted by Mumbai Mirror saying, "Shinde’s wife had been living at her mother’s place since the past three months. She was not allowing Shinde to meet their two-year-old daughter, which upset him badly. He had been depressed over the past few days." Neither of the celebrities have tweeted or posted about him as of yet.

A lot of actors in the past have opened up about depression and anxiety. Mental health awareness has been one of the top- most concerns in our society today. Actress Deepika Padukone is one of those who went into depression a few years back. She managed to get over it with a lot of help and support from people around her and has now started her own foundation which spreads mental health awareness.
