Sameer Sharma was popular for his role in TV shows like Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, Left Right Left, Jyoti, Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon – Ek Baar Phir among others. He also starred in 2014 romantic drama Hasee Toh Phasee which had Sidharth Malhotra and Parineeti Chopra in the lead roles.

Sameer’s Instagram bio describes him as ‘Actor. Writer. Poet’. In one of his recent posts, the actor penned a poem on death and dreams. “I built my pyre and slept on it and with my fire it was lit. And all that was me I burned in it. I killed my dream to wake up from it. Now my dream is gone,” the actor wrote.

Commenting on Sameer’s post, Richa Chadha wrote, “This was a warning sign … 💔 RIP brother. It’s a tough world.”

Two weeks back, the actor also wrote about mental health, depression and bipolar disorder. “Bipolar Disorder, Depression, and Schizophrenia etc. do you know or understand what that means or feels like? No you don’t, unless you’ve been through it yourself. And anybody who hasn’t, will never ever be able to understand what that feels like,” Sameer wrote. He captioned the post, “Read this if you cared about Sushant Singh Rajput.”
