The exact cause of her death has not been confirmed yet. According to the sources cited by The Indian Express, Jariwala had taken her usual pills on Friday night. In the afternoon, she had a shot of the anti-ageing drug, which involved the use of vitamin C and glutathione, a drug commonly used for skin lightening and detoxification. After consuming these, her blood pressure reportedly dropped drastically and her health declined between 10 pm and 11 pm, with her body shivering and eventually losing consciousness.

Shefali Jariwala Was Always A Daddy's Girl, From Kaanta Laga Days To His Battle With Cancer
New Delhi: Shefali Zariwala was only 19 when she featured in the Kaanta Laga remix video. Like any other father, her father Satish Jariwala, too, didn't want her to step into the world of glamour, modelling at a tender age. Shefali wanted to pursue her dream. So her father set a condition. The obedient girl listened to it. Years ago, Shefali Zariwala AKA the Kaanta Laga Girl told in an interview with Dainik Bhaskar that her father wanted her to finish the studies before she took up the music video assignment. Coming from a traditional Gujarati family, academics was given the first and foremost priority. Shefali revealed it was only after she promised to finish her studies, her father let her take up the music video. Shefali earned a degree in Computer Engineering from Sardar Patel Engineering College and even became an IT professional. However, balancing studies and career was not always an easy task, she said later. During the same interview, she thanked her parents for insisting her on completing studies. The discipline, she said, later helped her to shape her life. Shefali was an out-and-out family person. Her Instagram posts screamed love, togetherness and family bonding. A couple of months ago, Shefali shared a fun picture with her father in which they can be seen making a splash in a swimming pool. She captioned the picture, "My forever-Valentine, My Dad!"

The caption read, "To my dad who taught me the game of life and how to play it right. To my father, who has always been there for me and guided me to find happiness in life. Happy father's day, Papa! I love you." View this post on Instagram A post shared by Shefali Jariwala 🧿 (@shefalijariwala) Shefali always stood by her father during his battle with colon cancer. After Poonam Panday made a hoax of her death to spread awareness against cancer, Shefali wrote a strong note slamming her move. She also revealed her father's cancer battle and that's why she was very sensitive about such posts. An excerpt from her post read, "Deeply saddened and hurt how some people can use CANCER for publicity. I can't believe how insensitive people are. I don't know Poonam Pandey at all, but the fake drama of her demise to cervical cancer deeply affected me." "...The last few months have been difficult as my father has been undergoing treatment for Colon Cancer - stage 3. Not being able to sleep all of last night and being anxious as f*#k makes me so angry. In the name of creating awareness pls stop playing with people's emotions! Creating awareness on a SM platform is one thing but faking your own death is so low... This is not a joke... cancer is not a joke!" she added.

Shefali Jariwala's final moments: A puja, a fast, and an IV drip without supervision
Actor Shefali Jariwala had been observing a fast as part of a religious ritual and probably took medicines on an empty stomach, which may have led to her death. This is becoming more plausible as new evidence and reports emerge about the actor's sudden death at the age of 42 on June 27. Shefali Jariwal died after suffering a cardiac arrest but officials are still probing a detailed cause of death. While the detailed cause of death is not yet out, she is reported to have suffered a cardiac arrest as the immediate reason. Police have said she had been on a fast after holding a Satyanarayan Puja, a ritual performed for prosperity and general well-being, at the family home. While she had not eaten for hours, her husband and TV actor Parag Tyagi told the police that she collapsed around 10.30 pm after consuming food that had been prepared a day before. Shefali Jariwala's final moments retraced Parag Tyagi was walking their dog downstairs in the apartment building when he got a call from the house help about Shefali having passed out. He rushed up in the lift while the house help went downstairs to take care of the old dog. Shefali Jariwala's friend Pooja Ghai quoted Parag to retrace her final hours. 'Parag said that her pulse was still on, her eyes were not opening, and she just had dead weight to her body,' Ghai told film journalist Vivek Lalwani. 'He realised something was definitely wrong and took her to the hospital, but apparently when she was brought to the hospital, she was already dead,' Ghai further said. Tyagi took her to Bellevue Multispeciality Hospital in Mumbai's Andheri, where she was declared dead on arrival. The post-mortem examination was conducted at R N Cooper Hospital, Juhu, after which the preliminary findings about a possible cardiac arrest came out. Information from doctors and police sources, pieced together, suggests the suddenness of the collapse is linked to low blood pressure, which could be the result of prolonged fasting and taking medication on an empty stomach. Role of fast and skin-brightening medicines This leads to the question: Between the puja, and her eventual demise, was there a role of anti-ageing and skin-lightening pills and other such medicines, being taken unsupervised? Police found at least two boxes of anti-ageing medicines, 'skin glow' tablets and vitamin supplements during a search at her home, Hindustan Times has reported. Vials of glutathione — often marketed as a skin-brightening agent — were among the seized articles. From Pooja Ghai's account, it emerged that Shefali used to take Vitamin-C intravenous (IV) drips, too, one of which she took even on the night of her death. She claimed that such IV drips are 'not unsafe' and 'it's very common in Dubai'. Shefali's family have said she took these supplements and over-the-counter pills without express involvement of doctors. No foul play is suspected or reported. Statements have, however, been recorded by the police from her husband, other family members, house staff, and some friends. What police say so far Police were informed less than an hour after she collapsed in her apartment. Officers reached the Juhu hospital before midnight, and the autopsy was conducted the next day, as per protocol, including video-recording of the procedure. While the body was released after the autopsy and cremated by the family, viscera has been preserved and sent for analysis to the Forensic Science Laboratory in Kalina, Mumbai, to reveal the exact cause of death. That could take between two and three months. Shefali Jariwala had first shot to fame two decades ago, in 2002, as the lead model in the remix song 'Kaanta Laga'. She did other projects later, mostly reality shows, but her fame never again reached the heights that it had after her breakout hit.
