A tragic story happened to a YouTube couple from Kerala who often uploaded moments of their togetherness. Both died on Saturday a few hours after sharing a video with the Last Journey to Death as the background sound.
Priya and her husband Selvaraj died in very suspicious circumstances and the video embedded was a soundtrack titled Vidaparayukayanen Janmam which means the last journey to death.
Their bodies were first found by their son who came home late at that time. The police concluded in the initial investigation of the incident that there were indications of suicide as the main reason for Priya and Selvaraj’s death.
The last upload on their YouTube Channel account was 5-6 hours before they were found dead. In the 33-second video, a glimpse of the life of the couple from Kerala is shown accompanied by very unusual music.
Selvaraj is seen waving in front of the camera and his wife, Priya, is seen standing behind her husband smiling. From the video that was uploaded, many speculated and raised concerns about the initial intention of the two of them to end their lives.
The couple who have a YouTube channel called ‘Sellulu Family’ contains videos mostly dedicated to cooking made by Priya with almost 1,400 videos and has 18,000 subscribers.
Selvaraj and his wife are known by their neighbors as a quiet couple who prefer to avoid social activities that are often held in their neighborhood.
The YouTube couple also never participated in the Kudumbashree program, which is one of the poverty alleviation and women empowerment program held in their residence in Kerala.
It is known that the couple was reportedly facing financial difficulties after their daughter’s wedding which was held last year. Now the police are investigating several possibilities that could have caused the deaths of Priya and Selvaraj.
