Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar<\/span>43 minutes ago<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n Three members of the same family died after falling into a 250-foot-deep gorge in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, Maharashtra, on Friday. The deceased have been identified as 48-year-old Muralidhar Chandgude, 42-year-old Sangeeta Chandgude, and their 18-year-old son Kunal.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Just one day before this accident, Sangeeta had posted a video on her YouTube channel about the importance of relationships and love.<\/p>\n According to the police, the son had bought an iPhone but was unable to pay its EMI. He was asking the family for money to pay the EMI.<\/p>\n This led to an argument with his father. This is where the tragic incident began. After the argument, Kunal left the house in anger. He had climbed up Khawadya Hill.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Just one day before the accident, on Thursday, Sangeeta had posted a self-recorded video on YouTube. In it, she had said, “For a person who does not value love, there is no point in doing anything.”<\/p>\n Sangeeta had over 29,000 followers on YouTube. She had also posted short vlogs with her son.<\/span><\/p>\n \u2018A chapati tastes delicious only when it is cooked on both sides\u2019: Sangeeta<\/strong><\/span> In a one-minute video recorded in Marathi, Sangeeta said, \u201cBe prepared to entrust your destiny to someone who respects your love. If someone does not respect you, your love or what you do for them, there is no point in doing anything for them.\u201d<\/p>\n She added, \u201cA chapati tastes delicious only when it is cooked on both sides. The same applies to relationships. If both people treat each other well and value the relationship, it is worth staying in. But if one person values the relationship and the other does not, there is no point in continuing it. It is always better to walk away from such a relationship.\u201d<\/p>\n Sangeeta, who had more than 29,000 followers on YouTube, regularly posted motivational videos on her channel. She also shared several short vlogs featuring her son.<\/p>\n File photo of Muralidhar Chandgude (48 years), Sangeeta Chandgude (42 years) and son Kunal Chandgude (18 years).<\/span><\/p>\n Now understand the entire incident in 5 photos<\/strong><\/span> Stood at the edge of the hill for 4 hours<\/strong><\/p>\n Kunal had climbed the hill around 10 AM.

His mother was continuously pleading with her son to come down, crying, but he was not ready to listen to anyone.’<\/p>\n He said, ‘I also tried to explain to him, saying that you are educated, don’t take such a step, but it had no effect on Kunal. Four years ago, Kunal’s younger brother also died.
