She had also done some modelling jobs in Mumbai.

Her domestic help got suspicious as she did not respond to door bells and phone calls in the morning and informed the neighbours who called the police.

Arya lived alone and kept to herself mostly, the domestic help said.

The police said that the body was sent for post mortem examination and a forensic team collected samples from her room.
