Chennai/INBNS: Tamil TV star Chitra's husband was on Friday questioned by the police for the second consecutive day after the actor's mother accused him of beating her daughter to death.

She checked into the hotel on Tuesday late night after returning from a shoot.
Chitra was a part of an ongoing popular television serial called "Pandian Stores" on Vijay TV.
