Want to request/ advice something I feel very strongly about. Social media is very deceptive where to you it seems like everyone’s life is amazing but yours. It’s a scam! Do talk/ express your fears and sorrows with your people or even a stranger. Don’t worry what the world will think but fight your depression. Everyone’s life looks like a bed of roses but the inside stories are always different. Who is fighting what battle- we have no clue. PLS Talk. Express. Cry. But get it out of your system and don’t give up! Losing a life is not worth the horrible things happening to you. Someone is surely out there to fix you! Get your pillars of strength and stand Strong. Will miss you My Abhi @itsme_kushalpunjabi . Just hope ure happier where you’re at now 🙏 Only if you knew how much you were loved by all of us ❤️ #throwthemask #depressionistheworstillness

Kushal was well known in the industry circuit for his craze for fitness and fascination for bikes and he also owned a BMW racer bike. Apart from this, Kushal was a well-trained dancer and also enjoyed a career spanning 19 years in the film and television industry, thus carving a niche for himself. Our heartfelt condolences are with Kushal's family and we pray for his soul to rest in peace.
