San Rachel, also known as Sankarapriya, was a 25-year-old model from Puducherry who tragically ended her life on June 5 by taking an overdose of blood pressure medication. She had been undergoing treatment for kidney problems.

Known for her dark complexion, San Rachel faced discrimination since childhood but rose to fame in modeling, winning titles like Miss Puducherry (2020-21), Miss Dark Queen Tamil Nadu (2019), Miss Best Attitude, and Miss World Black Beauty.

She also hosted fashion shows and events. A suicide note stated her husband and in-laws were not responsible. Police suspect financial stress from event losses as a reason. Authorities have filed a case and launched an investigation into the incident.
