On Friday, Sandip Bhandarkar, a 24 year-old student, committed suicide by consuming an overdose of medicines which were originally prescribed to him by doctors. The Borivli resident studied Pharmacy in the US and had failed in some subjects, which, perhaps, pushed him towards the drastic step.

The Borivli police said Bhandarkar was suffering from a psychological condition, but refused to divulge further details.
