Yesteryear actor Raj Kiran in mental asylum!

Actor Raj Kiran,best remembered for his roles in films like ‘Arth’ and ‘Karz’,has been missing in action for over a decade now and was even rumoured to be dead. However,the actor has now been located at a mental asylum in USA and it was none other than Raj Kiran’s ‘Karz’ co-star Rishi Kapoor who came to know about his whereabouts.

After rumours of his death started coming,his friends and colleagues started to locate him. His ‘Hip Hip Hurray’ co-star Deepti Naval posted on Raj Kiran’s Facebook Fan page “Raj,where are you my friend? Please reach out — Deepti (Naval)”.

Rishi Kapoor,who recently went to US,was successful in tracing the whereabouts of his Karz co-star. Rishi was shocked to know that Raj is living in a mental asylum in Atlanta and pays for his own treatment by working within the institution.

Raj’s wife and son abandoned him sometime back and the rest of his family also didn’t bother to take care of him and left him to fend for himself. After going through a series of domestic crisis,he went into depression. He was then admitted in a mental institution at Byculla,Mumbai and was later on taken to the US by his brothers.
