Just 10 months before her sudden death, Shefali Jariwala had said: 'I want to be known as the Kaanta Laga girl till the day I die'
In a deeply heartbreaking and shocking development, actress and reality TV personality Shefali Jariwala, fondly remembered as the Kaanta Laga girl, has passed away at the age of 42. The actress, who gained national fame through the early 2000s remix hit and later appeared on Bigg Boss 13, is said to have suffered a cardiac arrest late on the night of June 27. According to reports, Shefali was rushed to Bellevue Multispeciality Hospital in Andheri, Mumbai, by her husband and three others. However, she was declared dead upon arrival. The hospital receptionist confirmed the tragic news, stating, 'Shefali had expired before she was brought in. Her husband and a few others accompanied the body.' 'I want to be known as the Kaanta Laga girl till the day I die' Just 10 months ago, Shefali had expressed her pride in the iconic identity she had created through her debut music video. During a candid conversation on Paras Chhabra's podcast, she addressed whether she ever tired of being known for Kaanta Laga. 'Go anywhere—YouTube, interviews, even Bigg Boss—it's not easy,' she said. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Temerin: New Container Houses (Prices May Surprise You) Container House | Search Ads Search Now Undo 'But you tell me, how much work does an artist do just to create one identity? Like Angry Young Man or King Khan. In my first project, it did that for me.' 'There can be only one Kaanta Laga girl in the whole world, and that is me,' she added proudly. 'I love it. I want to be known as the Kaanta Laga girl till the day I die. Even on my last living day on this earth, I still want people to remember me for that song. I'm very proud of it.' The remix that sparked an era and a cultural debate Shefali also revisited the legacy of the song, originally from the 1971 film Samadhi, which was remixed and released in 2002—marking the start of the remix boom in India. 'Kaanta Laga was one of the first big songs of the remix wave. It started a new era in music,' she recalled. During the same podcast, Paras Chhabra shared a personal anecdote from his childhood, recalling how he once got scolded by his mother for buying the Kaanta Laga cassette — shocked by Shefali's photo on the cover. Laughing at the memory, Shefali defended the bold visual style of the video. 'Top to bottom, I was fully covered! There was nothing revealing about that outfit. I was probably one of the most covered girls in that entire era of remixes,' she said. 'It wasn't about the clothes—it was the attitude. The girl in the video was bold, rebellious, reading a porn magazine, going to a nightclub, fighting with her boyfriend. That's what made people uncomfortable. It was the energy, the boldness, the confidence. That's what threw people off, not what I was wearing.' Shefali Jariwala gets this special birthday surprise from husband Parag Tyagi An unforgettable icon of early 2000s pop culture Shefali Jariwala's Kaanta Laga persona became a generational pop culture moment and earned her instant fame. Over the years, she also appeared in reality shows like Nach Baliye and Bigg Boss 13, and remained a beloved and respected figure in the entertainment industry. Apart from her music video fame, Shefali also made a notable appearance in the 2004 Bollywood film Mujhse Shaadi Karogi, starring Salman Khan , Akshay Kumar, and Priyanka Chopra. She was seen reprising her popular song Kaanta Laga with Akshay, where her glamorous screen presence once again captivated audiences. She is survived by her husband, actor Parag Tyagi. More details are awaited.

5 Amazing games that are leaving the PS+ Catalogue very soon
Image via Sony The situation with the PlayStation Plus Game Catalogue is that it will always change, and new games will appear on it, and some games could be secretly taken away. As much as new additions are ever interesting, it is difficult to lose some great games. This month, there are a number of notable games due to be removed from the PS+ club, and in case you have not yet played these games, do it before it is too late. Whether it be emotional journeys through life or crazed weapons-blazing missions in open worlds, these five games are a special experience, and as they say, time is fleeting, so this list will not last long. Must-play PS+ Games leaving the catalogue soon PlayStation Plus: Catalog Games Leaving Explained Here are five incredible games leaving PS+ soon that are worth your time. 1. Inscryption More than a card game, Inscryption is a wild blend of strategy, escape from puzzles, and psychological horror. It switches the plot all the time, dragging you even further into its distorted world. If you are in search of something new and really head-scratching, then you better not miss it, or it will be gone. 2. Ghostwire: Tokyo Set up in a beautifully haunted version of Tokyo, this action-adventure blends supernatural combat with atmospheric exploration. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Spectacular Cirque Charity GCE Read More Undo You will cast spells, fight ghosts, and solve mysteries based on Japanese folktales. It looks cool and spooky, and none of the other content on the platform can be compared to it. 3. Tchia Tchia is an emotional open-world adventure with a touch of soul-jumping, island exploring, and music influenced by the culture and landscapes of New Caledonia. It looks colorful, peaceful, and adorable, a pure feel-good game that will stand out among them all. 4. Far Cry 5 When it comes to chaotic shootouts, Ubisoft's popular open world, and explosives, all shot in a better-than-usual way to deal with them, then Far Cry 5 is everything you could ask for. The game unfolds in a cult-run American countryside and is full of action and unforgettable characters. It is one of the old-fashioned games in the series, but it still manages to be good nowadays. 5. Marvel's Avengers Although its multiplayer features are no longer supported, Marvel Avengers combines a good single-player campaign and dramatic moments of being a hero. With Iron Man flying around and Thor going thunderous, there is a good deal of action here to satisfy the Marvel audience; just make sure to get it before it disappears. The five games are as varied in both genre and gameplay experience as they are in name, and their loss in the PS+ Game Catalogue is significant in that it signifies the end of a good era. Make sure to download and play them as long as you can, because once they disappear, these incredible games may never pop up ever again. Game On Season 1 continues with Mirabai Chanu's inspiring story. Watch Episode 2 here.
