More than 10,000 Instagram fans followed Meenakshi Moorthy and Vishnu Viswanath’s travels. It is unclear whether the couple died while taking a selfie, as has been reported – though it would not be the first time that has happened in the park. Like so many young Indians, Vishnu was drawn to software engineering – and the promise it held of a lucrative career overseas. Initially Viswanath’s brother, Jishnu, was widely reported to have said that the couple were taking a selfie when they died. Nikolopoulos, the professor, said that “it is hard to believe” Viswanath died over something as trivial as a photograph.
