Singer Kalpana Raghavendar Refutes Suicide Claims, Says It Was an Accidental Overdose

Renowned playback singer Kalpana Raghavendar has addressed recent rumors about her health and personal life. She was found unconscious at her home in Nizampet, Hyderabad, on March 5, leading to widespread speculation of a suicide attempt. However, Kalpana has now clarified that she did not try to take her life but suffered an accidental overdose of sleeping pills due to her ongoing struggle with insomnia.

In a video message from the hospital, the singer stated, “I did not attempt suicide. I have been dealing with sleep issues for years due to my hectic schedule. On that day, I mistakenly took extra pills, which led to a lung infection, and I lost consciousness.”

Family and Police Efforts Saved Her Life

Kalpana’s husband, Prasad Prabhakar, was out of town when the incident occurred. When she did not answer his calls, he immediately contacted their apartment security and the police. The authorities broke open the kitchen door, rescued her, and rushed her to a nearby hospital, where she was placed on a ventilator. After hours of treatment, she regained consciousness and is now recovering.

Expressing gratitude, she said, “I am alive today because of my husband. He coordinated with the police, ambulance, and media to ensure I got medical help in time.”

Denies Rumors of Family Issues

Following her hospitalization, reports surfaced claiming that Kalpana had family disputes with her husband and daughter, Daya Prasad. Dismissing these allegations, she stated, “There are no problems in my family. I am blessed to have a supportive husband and a wonderful daughter. Please do not believe false rumors.”

She emphasized that her stress levels had increased as she was juggling multiple commitments, including pursuing a PhD, studying LLB, and managing her music career. This intense workload contributed to her chronic insomnia, which led to the unfortunate overdose.

Kalpana Thanks Well-Wishers, Plans a Strong Comeback

Kalpana expressed deep gratitude to the police, media, fans, and colleagues for their support during this difficult time. She reassured everyone that she is recovering well and looks forward to returning to music soon.

“I will be back stronger. I plan to live for 100 years and continue entertaining you all with my music,” she concluded with a smile.

Kalpana’s daughter, Daya, also spoke to the media, confirming that her mother did not attempt suicide but accidentally took an excessive dose of sleeping pills. She urged people to stop spreading misinformation.

Final Update on Kalpana’s Health

The singer remains under medical supervision but is showing signs of improvement. Doctors have advised her to take adequate rest and manage stress levels. Fans and well-wishers are relieved that she is safe and on the path to recovery.
