Marathi actor tries to catch running train at Malad, slips and falls to death


 Recently, 22-year-old Marathi actor Prafulla Bhalerao told his mother that he was finding the commute from his office in Malad to his home in Girgaum very tiring. The travel killed him on Monday morning. At 4.16am, when Prafulla tried to board a running train at Malad station, he slipped and fell. The GRP took him to Babasaheb Ambedkar hospital in Kandivli, where he was declared dead. His iPhone helped cops establish his identity.
Prafulla shot to fame as a child actor on the TV show 'Kunku'. He has also acted in Marathi TV serials such as 'Tu Majha Sangati,' 'Nakushi' and 'Jyotiba Phule', besides a Marathi film 'Barayan', which was released recently.
CCTV footage shows Prafulla running on a foot over-bridge to catch a Churchgate-bound slow train that had started moving out. He slipped from the end of the platform. A post-mortem examination showed head injuries to be the cause of his death.
