Varsha Bhosale: Missing Somebody with out Knowing

I was reading an article in Niticentral by Rajeev Srinivasan "congress-says-toilets-better-than-temples". At the outset one can easily say that it was more than a general outrage over the issue. I could understand the background of the feeling. Today I read anther article by the same author at rediff site. varsha-bhosle-was-a-fearless-warrior.
i heard about suicide news of Varsha Bhosale in Twitter. may be from Vijay of @centerofright. He mentioned that she was a right wing columnist. I had not heard of her. I dont claim to know all columnist, but lately i have been following few of them and trying to know bit about their style and if possible also about them. and she was not in those list. If she was one of those how did i miss her.
Then I came across one of her articles on Gujarat Riot. from there i came to know that what stuff she had.
only one picture is going round in press that is with her mother Asha Bhosale. I had read that Asha Bhosale was going for a receiving an award in Singapore. She was there when it happened.
somewhere it was also told that she was very disturbed. it seems she attempted to suicide earlier too. it seems she had annulled her marriage. also there were links that she was engaged to somebody of other religion too. one person who appeared very close to her is columnist at rediff Dilip D'Souza. is he the person? dont know. it seems she trusted him most even during his last days. He wrote a fitting tribute in rediff. dear-varsha-im-so-damned-sad.
i also came to know that she stopped writing in 2003. nobody seems to say why? but looks like it had much to do with some personal. that explained why i did not get to hear much about her.
I think i miss someone, whom i did not know but getting to know when she is no more. Wishing her peace where ever she is.
