JAGTIAL: In a shocking incident, an 11-year-old boy hanged himself from the ceiling at his home in Puranipeta of Jagtial town late on Monday, after his father refused to give him money to book a ticket for Pawan Kalyan-starrer Bheemla Nayak. According to a complaint lodged with the police, Panduloji Navdeep, a Class 8 student, had asked his father to give him Rs 300 to book the ticket in advance for the movie scheduled to release on February 25.
When his father Narsaiah, a daily wage earner, said that he did not have money and asked him to wait, Navdeep was distraught. He went into a room and locked it from inside. When he did not emerge from the room for a long time, Navdeep’s parents became suspicious. They broke open the door to see their son hanging from the ceiling with a lungi.
