Bengaluru/IBNS: Kannada TV actor Sampath J Ram was found dead at his house in Bengaluru's Nelamangala on Saturday. He was 35.

The actor was known for his roles in several TV serials and films such as 'Agnisakshi'  and 'Sri Balaji Photo Studio'.

Sampath J Ram's friend Rajesh Dhruva, who is also an actor, confirmed the news of Sampath's death in a Facebook post.

The post as translated from Kannada reads, "We do not have the strength to bear your parting. So many movies are yet to be made. There is still plenty of time to make your dreams come true. We still have to see you on the big stage. Please come back."

According to reports, Ram was upset over not being offered enough work.

In an interview with ETimes, Sampath Jayaram's Agnisakshi co-star Vijay Suriya said that the actor was waiting for good offers.

"I did not expect anything like this to happen in his life. He was looking forward to good opportunities as an actor. He wanted to grow heights in his career and was very ambitious," Suriya told ETimes.
