Shefali Jariwala’s untimely death at the age of 42 left her fans in shock. According to reports, the actor suffered a cardiac arrest. Now, Shefali’s close friend, actor Pooja Ghai, has opened up to Vickey Lalwani about Shefali’s last moments and how her husband, Parag Tyagi, found her motionless at their home. Pooja shared that after dinner, Shefali had asked her husband to take their dog for a walk. While Parag went downstairs with their dog, he received a call from their house help almost immediately, urging him to come back upstairs as Shefali wasn’t feeling well. Pooja said, “What happened exactly, we will get to know after postmortem, but from what I understand, she had dinner and told Parag to take the dog for a walk. As soon as he went down, the helper at home called him and said, ‘Didi is not feeling well.’ So, she told him, ‘Could you just come up, take care of me?’”
Parag waited on the ground floor for the help to come down and take the dog so he could go check on Shefali, and then, he rushed back upstairs. However, when he reached their apartment, he found Shefali lying motionless. Pooja recalled her conversation with Parag and said, “Parag said that she still had a pulse. And her eyes were not opening and she just had dead weight to her body. So he immediately must have realised that something was definitely wrong. And he took her to the hospital… before she was brought in at Bellevue, she was already no more,” she said.
Shefali’s last rites took place at Oshiwara Hindu crematorium on June 28, which was attended by her family and close friends from the film industry.
