Balabhaskar and his daughter has died and Balabhaskar’s wife Lakshmi and driver Arjun had sustained severe injuries in the accident that took place on September 25 , 2018. As per Kerala police the accident occurred when Arjun, who drive the vehicle, nodded off.
The car veered hard to the extreme right of the carriageway and dashed against a tree abutting the road. The family was headed home from Thrissur and the long night drive had fatigued the driver and the passengers, the State police had said.
The parents of Balabhaskar petitioned Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan for a CBI inquiry into the death of their son in 2019. In the complaint, they pointed out that the Directorate of Revenue Intelligence (DRI) had booked two of the musician’s aides, both part of Balabhaskar’s entourage when he travelled abroad for stage programmes, on the charge of having smuggled gold in bulk through the international airport here early in 2018.
