'Family Man' actor Rohit Basfore found dead in Guwahati; family alleges murder

Rohit Basfore, best known for his role in the hit web series 'Family Man' Season 3, was reportedly found dead after a day out with friends in the Garbhanga forest in Assam on Sunday evening.
According to a report by Odisha Bytes, Rohit, originally from Assam, had returned to his hometown a few months ago. Reports on various local news portals state that the actor had gone out with a group of friends on Sunday afternoon. He reportedly left home around 12:30 PM and reportedly informed his family about the short outing.
However, concern grew when his family lost contact with him later in the day. Reports then state that a friend informed the family of an accident. Although Basfore was rushed to a hospital, he was declared dead on arrival.
His sudden death has prompted the family to contact the SDRF, who later recovered the body and sent it for examination. The police have confirmed that multiple injuries were found on Rohit's body. An autopsy conducted at Guwahati Medical College Hospital noted that several injuries were noted on his body, including wounds on the head, face, and other parts.
Initial police investigations suggest that Rohit’s death appears to be a case of accidental drowning. Reports state that the family has alleged foul play. They claim the actor was recently involved in a parking dispute during which three individuals — Ranjit Basfore, Ashok Basfore, and Dharam Basfore — had allegedly threatened his life.
The family has also named Amardeep, a gym owner who reportedly invited Rohit to the day trip, as a person of interest.
The police are awaiting the postmortem report and have not yet ruled out any possibilities. The family’s concerns and the injury marks have prompted authorities to initiate a deeper investigation into the case. Authorities added that the four accused individuals are currently absconding, and an investigation is underway.
Prior to Rohit's death, Asif Basra, who starred in 'Family Man' Season 2 made headlines when news broke of his tragic demise by apparent suicide. In the Raj Nidimoru and Krishna DK directorial, the actor played the role of a marriage counsellor. Taking to their Instagram handle, the director duo paid him tribute in a post that read, "Many of us have been affected by the loss of a loved one in the last year. Asif Basra shot with us for Season 2. He was brilliant! And losing him to suicide has left us heartbroken! May your soul find peace and comfort wherever you are… Asif Basra!"
