Bangalore, 06 November 2011: After being asked to continue his studies instead of pursuing a singing career in Mumbai, 21-year-old Aditya Nadig hanged himself with a bed sheet at his home on Ittamadu Road, Sriramnagar, Friday night.

 

Chennammanakere Achukattu police said that Aditya, who was in the final year of his Bachelors of Business Management (BBM) course in  APS College in Basavanagudi, Bangalore, had participated in numerous singing competitions, including a reality show on a Kannada TV channel.

 

 

Recently he got an offer to sing in Hindi in Mumbai. “However, on Friday night his parents asked him to get his degree before attempting a singing career.

 

He was very troubled after they forbade him from going to Mumbai,” said a police official.

 

His father Ramaswamy found his body on Saturday morning when he went to find out why his son was not up even at 9.30 a.m., the police said.
