The neighbours called the police after they began getting a foul smell from the house. The police broke the door open and found the actor’s body in a highly decomposed state with an injury on her hand, reported The Hindu.

Police suspect that she had died three days ago. The New Indian Express reported that the suicide note spoke about how she was struggling to get opportunity in the cinema field and also facing turmoil in her relationship with a man.  

Sabarna’s father Anandkumar, mother Pushpalatha and her brother were living in Virugambakkam. Sabarna preferred to stay alone in her apartment. She hails from Udumalaipettai in Tiruppur district.

She was acting in TV serials like “Pasamalar” on Sun TV and had done several shows for Star Vijay, including “Pudhu Kavidhai” and a cooking show. 

An actor told The News Minute, "She was a very bold person, but she had a lot of personal issues. She used to take relationships and friendships very seriously, but she used to brave her way out of issues. She used to get tensed, but this is unexpected.”
