The actor-model best known for her breakout in the early 2000s hit music video was found unresponsive at her Mumbai residence, cause of death remains unknown as tributes pour in from industry peers.
Actor and model Shefali Jariwala, widely remembered as the face of the chartbuster Kaanta Laga, passed away in Mumbai on June 27 at the age of 42, leaving the entertainment industry in shock.
Jariwala was reportedly found unconscious at her Andheri residence and rushed to Bellevue Multispecialty Hospital by her husband, actor Parag Tyagi, and three others. Doctors declared her brought dead. The exact cause of death remains unconfirmed. Mumbai Police, who were informed around 1 AM, have sent the body for postmortem at Cooper Hospital.
"Her body was recovered from her home in Andheri. We were alerted during the night and an investigation is underway. The cause of death will be ascertained after the autopsy report,” said a senior Mumbai police official.
Jariwala shot to fame in 2002 with Kaanta Laga, a remix that became a pop culture phenomenon. Her bold, electrifying screen presence earned her instant stardom and the moniker Kaanta Laga Girl.
