New Delhi, June 11:
Jiah Khan’s suicide
note – which was found a few days after she took her life at her apartment in
Juhu – has been revealed.
According to DNA,
Jiah’s mother Rabiya found the six-page letter in her wallet box when she was
searching for poems written by the late actress to be read out at her prayer
meet held on Sunday.
The letter – which
does not mention anybody’s name – reads as follows:
“I don’t know how to
say this to you but I might as well now as I have nothing to lose. I’ve already
lost everything. If you’re reading this I might have already left or about to
leave. I am broken inside. You may not have known this but you affected me
deeply to a point where I lost myself in loving you. Yet you tortured me every
day.
These days I see no
light I wake up not wanting to wake up. There was a time I saw my life with
you, a future with you. But you shattered my dreams. I feel dead inside. I’ve
never given so much of myself to someone or cared so much. You returned my love
with cheating and lies. It didn’t matter how many gifts I gave you or how
beautiful I looked for you.
I was scared of
getting pregnant but I gave myself completely the pain you have caused me
everyday has destroyed every bit of me, destroyed my soul. I can’t eat or sleep
or think or function. I am running away from everything. The career is not even
worth it anymore.
When I first met you
I was driven, ambitious and disciplined. Then I fell for you, a love I thought
would bring out the best in me. I don’t know why destiny brought us together.
After all the pain, the rape, the abuse, the torture I have seen previously I
didn’t deserve this.
I didn’t see any love
or commitment from you. I just became increasingly scared that you would hurt
me mentally or physically. Your life was about partying and women. Mine was you
and my work. If I stay here I will crave you and miss you.
So I am kissing my
10-year career and dreams goodbye. I never told you but I received a message
about you. About you cheating on me. I chose to ignore it, decided to trust
you. You embarrassed me. I never went out, I never went with anyone else. I am
a loyal person. I never met anyone with Karthik I just wanted you to feel how
you make me feel constantly.
No other woman will
give you as much as I did or love you as much as I did. I can write that in my
blood. Things were looking up for me here, but is it worth it when you
constantly feel the pain of heartbreak when the person you love wants to abuse
you or threatens o hit you or cheats on you telling other girls they are
beautiful or throws you out of their house when you have no where to go and
you’ve come to them out of love or when they lie to your face or they make you
chase after them in their car.
Or disrespects their
family. You never even met my sister. I bought your sister presents. You tore
my soul. I have no reason to breathe anymore. All I wanted was love. I did
everything for you. I was working for us. But you were never my partner. My
future is destroyed my happiness snatched away from me.
I always wished the
best for you, was ready to invest what little money I had in your betterment.
You never appreciated my love, Kicked me in the face. I have no confidence or
self esteem left, whatever talent whatever ambition you took it all away. You
destroyed my life. It hurt me so much that I waited for you for ten days and
you didn’t bother buying me something.
The Goa trip was my
birthday present but even after you cheated I still spent on you. I aborted our
baby when it hurt me deeply. You destroyed my Christmas and my birthday dinner
when I came back. When I tried my hardest to make your birthday special. You
chose to be away from me on Valentines Day. You promised me once we made it to
one year we would get engaged. All you want in life is partying, your women and
your selfish motives.
All I wanted was you
and my happiness you took both away from me. I spent money on you selflessly
you would throw in my face. When I would cry for you. I have nothing left in
this world to live for after this. I wish you had loved me like I loved you.
