In a bizarre incident, a 28-year-old woman in Tamil Nadu reportedly set herself on fire after her husband brought her Plain Biryani instead of Chicken Biryani. The woman, who later died of burn injuries, has been identified as Sowmiya. The deceased and her husband, Manoharan (32) were residents of a village near the historical town of Mamallapuram in Tamil Nadu. Both were involved in sculpture making.
As per reports, when Manoharan couldn't bring Chicken Biryani from a newly opened eatery due to its unavailability, and instead brought Plain Biryani, his wife refused to have it. Resultantly, the husband gave the Biryani to his neighbor and left for work.
Later in the day, Soumiya reportedly set herself ablaze on the terrace of their house. Upon being spotted by a neighbor, who alerted the Police, she was rushed to a hospital. However, she succumbed to her injuries later.
