According to Jiah’s mother Razia Khan, the actress, who made her dream debut opposite Amitabh Bachchan in Nishabd, was unhappy about her career. She had last appeared in a supporting role in Sajid Khan’s multi-starrer comedy Housefull in 2010. As per her mother, Jiah was exploring a career in interior designing besides acting in films. Khan told the police that Jiah had gone to Hyderabad on 2 June for an audition which did not go well. Her last rites have not yet been performed because the family is waiting for her friends and relatives to arrive from London, where she was born and brought up. The police have also questioned her maid, watchman and neighbours to determine the cause of the alleged suicide. The post-mortem examination at JJ hospital suggested the death was caused due to hanging. PTI
