The above solution may throw a null when casting to ToolStripMenuItem and there's some fluff. This one is cleaner:

private void item_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    ToolStripMenuItem item = sender as ToolStripMenuItem;
    if (item != null)
    {
        int index = ContextMenuStrip.Items.IndexOf(commentMenuItem);
    }
}

    {
        int index = (item.OwnerItem as ToolStripMenuItem).DropDownItems.IndexOf(item);
    }
}
