Personal life
Alphonsa was born in Tamil Nadu.[citation needed] Her younger brother is choreographer Robert, who has also worked in films as an actor.[citation needed] Alphonsa had lived with an upcoming actor, Vinod, in a live-in relationship for two years, before he committed suicide in 2012. Alphonsa also then attempted suicide in March 2012 by consuming excessive sleeping pills, but was saved.[2] Reports initially emerged casting suspicion over the actress's involvement in Vinod's death.[3][4][5] She later insisted that such allegations were baseless. She stated that Vinod had played the lead in a movie called Kavasam, alongside Murali, which was put on hold because of financial problems, and that the failure to make it as an actor in films despite half a decade of hard work had him feeling depressed enough to commit suicide.[6]
