Prominent Tollywood director and screenwriter Utsab Mukherjee has been reported missing since the afternoon of April 2. His wife, Moupiya Mukherjee, shared an emotional post on Facebook stating that he hasn’t returned home, prompting the police to initiate an investigation on the morning of April 3. As the search intensifies, whispers of past incidents involving late model Sonika Chauhan are resurfacing in industry circles.

Reportedly, Utsab was a close friend of Sonika, and following her tragic death, his social media account was hacked and filled with explicit posts—an incident that led him to the cybercrime cell. Interestingly, Utsab’s Facebook profile picture was updated shortly before he went missing. While Moupiya claims he had mentioned changing it, the timing has raised eyebrows. Whether this disappearance is linked to personal reasons or past trauma remains a subject of intense speculation as the industry awaits a breakthrough from the police.
