The reason of her death is not known yet to this journalist, but I can confirm that she was brought dead to Bellevue Multispeciality hospital (opposite Star Bazaar Andheri) about 45 minutes prior to this post. Shefali was rushed to the hospital by her husband and three others. This news was confirmed by the reception staff of the hospital, who said, ‘Shefali had expired before she was brought in. Her husband and a few others accompanied the body.’ We asked for the RMO who took over the call and simply said, ‘For further details, please speak to Dr Vijay Lulla (cardiologist).’
When contacted, Dr Lulla did not deny the news, but would only say, ‘I cannot divulge any details regarding any patient.’
We then spoke to Dr Sushant from the same hospital, who confirmed the news, and said, ‘We are sending the body for post mortem to Cooper hospital.’”
Shefali’s husband Parag has not spoken to the media or confirmed his wife’s death so far.
