Shefali Jariwala’s Death
Shefali Jariwala passed away suddenly on June 27, 2025, leaving the entertainment industry and her fans in shock. She was 42. Known for her iconic role in the 2002 remix Kaanta Laga, she also appeared in reality shows like Nach Baliye and Bigg Boss 13, where she shared screen space with the late Sidharth Shukla, Shehnaaz Gill, and others.
Tyagi rushed her to Bellevue Multispeciality Hospital in Mumbai after she suffered a suspected cardiac arrest, but she was declared dead on arrival. Reports suggest she had taken routine medications alongside an anti-aging injection, which may have contributed to her sudden illness, marked by low blood pressure and shivering. The official cause of death remains “reserved” pending a post-mortem report. Her prayer meeting was held on July 2 in Mumbai.
Shefali Jariwala’s Legacy
Beyond the tattoo, Tyagi has honored Shefali’s legacy by launching the Shefali Jariwala Rise Foundation for Girls’ Education and Women Empowerment. He said it was her dream. Tyagi also plans to release a YouTube podcast sharing their life’s memories, including what happened on that “dark night.”
