The death of Bengali actor Rahul Arunoday Banerjee took a new turn after his family alleged that there may be more to the incident than initially believed. Following their complaint, police have reportedly registered a First Information Report (FIR) and launched an investigation into the circumstances surrounding his death.

Rahul reportedly died by drowning while he was in Talsari Beach for a film shoot. His family approached the authorities on Saturday and lodged a complaint at the Talsari Marine Police Station, claiming that the incident could involve a possible conspiracy.

According to a report in India Today, Rahul’s wife, Priyanka Sarkar, filed the complaint in the presence of veteran Bengali actor Prosenjit Chatterjee and police officials. Priyanka named five individuals in the complaint, raising suspicions of foul play in connection with the actor’s death.

Speaking about the development, Prosenjit said, "Rahul's family approached the police to file an FIR and were supported throughout the process. In the presence of a lawyer and police personnel, we filed the FIR." Confirming the registration of the case, Balasore Additional SP Dibyajyoti Das stated that the investigation has already begun.

According to reports, Rahul had travelled to Talsari Beach for a film shoot a few days before the incident. After wrapping up the shoot, he was walking back when he slipped in shallow seawater and was pulled away by strong currents.
