Sumi reportedly clutched a pen and paper in her hand and spoke incoherently in a mix of Bengali and English. As local passersby noticed her, they couldn't fully understand what she was saying or who she was. A few hours later, after speaking to her and doing a Google search, her identity was finally revealed. The police later confirmed her identity.
According to a The Indian Express report, Choudhury was first noticed by locals when she was seeking shelter from rain at a roadside rest area in Khandaghosh, a locality in the Purba Bardhaman district. When approached by the locals, she introduced herself, saying, “I’m Sumi Har Choudhury, an actress." The locals were curious yet somewhat sceptical, and hence searched her name on the internet. After matching her face with images from her old film and TV appearances, they were convinced of her identity.
A local explained, “She seemed mentally disturbed, but kept repeating that she had acted in serials. At first, we didn’t believe her. Then we saw her photos online and realised she was telling the truth."
According to Sub-Divisional Police Officer of Bardhaman Sadar South, Abhishek Mandal, the actress was spotted near the Bardhaman-Arambagh state highway. Mandal stated, “She has been sent to a shelter home, and efforts are underway to trace her family. We have informed the Behala police station in Kolkata." The authorities are now reportedly trying to understand how the actress ended up in such a condition.
