Prominent Kannada movie actor-director Vijay Raghavendra’s spouse Spandana died in Bangkok on Monday, the household mentioned.

Spandana (aged 44) had gone on a visit to Thailand’s capital together with her cousins, and Raghavendra too had joined them after finishing his capturing schedules.

“Last night she went to sleep and did not get up in the morning. We believe it (death) is due to (complications arising from) low blood pressure,” Sri Murali told reporters here, quoting his brother Raghavendra who called him up from Bangkok.

Spandana is the daughter of retired police officer B K Shivaram and niece of Congress MLC B K Hariprasad. She had acted in a movie Apoorva, making a guest appearance.

Hariprasad said: “Spandana did not get up in the morning. They are saying it’s a heart attack”.

Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and Deputy Chief Minister D Okay Shivakumar and several other others expressed shock over her demise and provided condolences.
