A team of police officials rushed him to a private hospital where he was declared dead before arrival. After which the body was shifted to Cooper hospital for autopsy report, added the officer.

Someshwar Kanthe, senior police inspector at Amboli police station said, “We have registered an Accidental Death Record (ADR) and are enquiring the matter. Preliminary enquiry and autopsy report do not indicate any foul play. The incident took place on Sunday night somewhere between 10 pm and 11:30 PM.”

Police officials who have questioned his friends that Akshat was in depression as there was no job because of the lockdown and because he had to borrow money from his family and friends.

He also dismissed that Akshat was in depression, saying that the actor was looking for work and had found a film.
