In a profoundly shocking turn of events, actress Shefali Jariwala, widely recognized for her stint on Bigg Boss 13 and her iconic appearance in the "Kaanta Laga" music video, has tragically passed away at the age of 42. Reports indicate that she suffered a cardiac arrest on the night of June 27th. The news of her demise was confirmed by the reception staff at Bellevue Multispeciality Hospital.

Shefali was reportedly rushed to Bellevue Multispeciality Hospital by her husband, Parag Tyagi, along with three others. Upon arrival, she was declared to have passed away before reaching the hospital. Vickey Lalwani, a journalist, corroborated this information in a social media post, stating that Shefali was "brought dead" to the hospital. Her husband and a few others accompanied her body.

Following the initial confirmation, Shefali's body was later transferred to Cooper Hospital. Dr. Vijay Lulla, a cardiologist, was contacted for further details but declined to provide specific patient information, only stating, "I cannot divulge any details regarding any patient".

The news has sent shockwaves through the television and entertainment industry. Numerous celebrities, including Aly Goni and Rajiv Adatia, took to social media to express their condolences. Aly Goni simply wrote "RIP," while Rajiv Adatia, sharing a picture of the actress, expressed his disbelief, "In total shock!! Rest In Peace Shefali!!. This is beyond shocking". Actress Divyanka Tripathi also conveyed her sorrow on X (formerly Twitter), stating, "Still can't process the news about Shefali. Gone too soon. Deeply sad for her husband and the family".

The grieving family is grappling with immense emotional turmoil during this difficult time. Parag Tyagi was observed leaving Cooper Hospital visibly shaken late last night, after Shefali’s mortal remains were sent for post-mortem. The loss of Shefali Jariwala leaves a void in the hearts of her fans and colleagues, who remember her as a strong and graceful personality.
