Mumbai: Renowned actress and dancer Shefali Jariwala, best known for her 2002 hit Kaanta Laga, passed away at the age of 42 on June 27, reportedly due to cardiac arrest.
Shefali was married to actor Parag Tyagi. For the unversed, Shefali and Parag tied the knot in August 2014 after dating for four years. The couple had appeared together in popular reality shows like Nach Baliye 5 and Nach Baliye 7, and often shared pictures of themselves on social media.
Shefali’s last Instagram post with her husband was from Ashtami celebrations earlier this year in April. Sharing a carousel post from the puja, where she and Parag posed with children at their home, she had written, “Jai Mata di With my very naughty and loving children #ashtami.”
Their love story began at a friend’s dinner party, where Parag reportedly experienced love at first sight. After Shefali’s divorce from musician Harmeet Singh of Meet Brothers fame in 2009, the couple dated for four years before marrying in 2014.
Parag Tyagi, 49, is a well-known actor who has featured in movies such as A Wednesday, Phhir, and Sarkaru Vaari Paata. He made his television debut with Ekta Kapoor’s hit serial Pavitra Rishta, acting alongside Ankita Lokhande, Sushant Singh Rajput, and Amit Sarin.
For those unfamiliar, before marrying Parag Tyagi, Shefali Jariwala was previously married to Harmeet Singh, one half of the popular musical duo Meet Brothers, known for chartbusters like Baby Doll and Chittiyaan Kalaiyaan. Their marriage ended in 2009.
The sudden passing of Shefali Jariwala has left fans and the entertainment industry shocked and grieving.
