Bollywood designer Anil Cherian found dead at age of 43


Bollywood designer Anil Cherian has been found dead.

The 43 year-old had been working on Bold Bollywood, a film inspired by the life of Jiah Khan, who committed suicide earlier this year.

According to The Times of India, Cherian had reportedly attended a party at a resort in Gorai, near Mumbai.

Staff at the resort were reportedly drawing water from the well when they discovered Cherian's body on Monday (September 9).

"The well is 100 to 150ft from the room where the party was held. The resort exit was not brightly lit, so it is possible Anil veered towards the well. We are probing whether it was an accident or if there was any foul play," said Senior Inspector Deepak Bagwe of Gorai police.

Actor and television presenter Shekhar Suman said that news of Cherian's death was "unbelievable".

"He was not only my stylist, but also a dear friend," said Suman. "He was full of life."

An autopsy was conducted on Tuesday (September 10), but the cause of death is yet to be established.
