The Link I Wished Was a Prank: Remembering Sutharsan

Sometimes life hits us with news we never want to hear. Yesterday, my friend Sutharsan Natchiyappan left this world in an accident. But I only came to know about it today.

A friend sent me a message, along with a link: https://www.dinakaran.com/district/sivaganga_270925_3/

At first, I honestly thought it was a prank. Some cruel joke, some mistake. How could Sutharsan—the boy who made us laugh without trying, who cared so deeply for everyone around him—be gone? My mind refused to accept it.

But when I opened the link and read the words, the truth cut me deeper than anything ever has. It was not a prank. It was not a rumor. It was reality. And in that moment, I broke down. Tears rolled down uncontrollably, and my heart felt heavier than ever.

The Friend Who Was More Than a Friend

Sutharsan was only 22. He had a life ahead of him—dreams to chase, memories to make, and endless laughter to share. He was funny, effortlessly funny. Even on days when nothing felt right, he could bring a smile with just his words. And beyond the humor, he was caring. He noticed when you were quiet, when you were hurting, and he always showed up with kindness.

Losing someone like him feels like losing a piece of light.

The Lesson His Life Leaves Behind

• Life is fragile—yesterday he was here, today he is only a memory.

• Love and kindness are the only things that remain after we’re gone.

• Every smile, every laugh, every small act of care matters more than we realize.

My Goodbye

Sutharsan, I wish this was just a prank. I wish that link was wrong. I wish I could still hear your jokes, your laughter, your caring words. But life had other plans.

You may be gone, but your memory will never fade. Your laughter will echo in my mind, and your care will live on in my heart.

Rest in peace, my friend.
You left too soon, but you will never be forgotten.
