- Sangita Chandgude posted a video on relationships a day before her death with her family
- The family died after falling 200 feet from a hill following an argument over phone EMIs
- Sangita’s videos focused on love, relationships, and family issues on her YouTube channel
A day before her tragic death at a hill in Maharashtra's Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar along with her husband and teen son, Sangita Chandgude had posted a video on her YouTube channel on relationships and their values.
Sangita, her 48-year-old husband, Murlidhar Chandgude, and their 18-year-old son, Kunal, died after they fell in a 250-foot gorge from the Kohdya Dongar on Friday afternoon, allegedly after an argument over the EMIs for the son's new phone.
On Thursday, Sangita had shared a self-recorded video on YouTube, saying there is "no point in doing anything for a person who does not value love".
"Be ready to give your fate but to that person who values you, who values your love. If a person does not value you, does not value your love, or does not value what you do for them, then there is no point in doing anything for such a person," she said in Marathi in a one-minute video.
After about three hours, Murlidhar climbed up to where Kunal stood and attempted to physically pull him back from the edge.
In the process, the two lost their balance and fell into a 250-foot gorge.
Witnessing her husband and son fall, heartbroken Sangita also jumped from the hill seconds later. All three died on the spot.
According to police sources, Kunal had come to the same spot last year with the intention of dying by suicide. At that time, the police had managed to counsel him and bring him down safely.
