Shefali Jariwala's first marriage ended with serious allegations of abuse and unauthorized bank withdrawals by ex-husband Harmeet Singh.
'Kaanta Laga' girl Shefali Jariwala breathed her last on June 27. As her fans are mourning the untimely demise of the actress-dancer, pictures from her first marriage to musician Harmeet Singh have gone viral on Instagram.
The photos were shared by an Instagram pop culture handle called Celebrity Shala. In the photos, the actress was seen draped in traditional attire consisting of a pink kurta and jeans. She also covered her head with a dupatta. She was also spotted flaunting sindoor on her head and maroon-colored 'chuda' or bangles on her wrists. As per a Bollywood Shaadis report, the actress was visiting her in-laws in Gwalior back then.
Shefali Jariwala's separation from her former husband, Harmeet Singh, was far from peaceful. Their relationship ended on a troubling note, with serious allegations made by Shefali that highlighted the darker side of their time together. As per police records, she lodged an official complaint at Oshiwara Police Station in Mumbai, accusing Harmeet of subjecting her to both emotional and physical distress. She also alleged that he had withdrawn around Rs 12 lakh from their shared bank account without seeking her permission, further adding to the betrayal she felt in the relationship.
During a candid conversation with Times Now in 2021, Shefali delved deeper into the emotional turmoil she experienced during her first marriage. She emphasized that it is crucial to recognize when one is being undervalued in a relationship. According to her, not all abuse manifests in visible injuries—some wounds are internal, stemming from constant emotional neglect, manipulation, or mental distress. She believed this type of suffering can be just as damaging as physical harm, quietly eroding a person's peace of mind and sense of self-worth.
Shefali's decision to walk away from her first marriage wasn't taken lightly. One of the key reasons she was able to take such a bold step was her financial independence. She explained that earning her own income gave her the strength and autonomy to make choices that were best for her well-being. She acknowledged that in Indian society, divorce still carries stigma and is often seen as a taboo. However, her upbringing taught her to value personal happiness over societal expectations. She credited her courage to the unwavering support she received from her family and her firm belief in doing what feels right, regardless of judgment from others.She also highlighted how economic freedom gave her the power to shape her own future. By not being financially dependent, she didn't have to stay trapped in an unhappy and unhealthy marriage. Her story underscores the importance of empowering oneself, emotionally and financially, especially in relationships that lack mutual respect or equality.After closing that difficult chapter, Shefali found love again and moved forward. She eventually married actor Parag Tyagi, known for his role in the television series 'Brahmarakshas'. Her journey from emotional trauma to personal empowerment serves as an inspiring example of resilience, strength, and the value of standing up for oneself, even when society makes it difficult.

Another reason to drive safe on Indian roads: You may lose insurance claim for rash driving

A bench consisting of Justices P S Narasimha and R Mahadevan refused to give relief to a wife, son and parents of a man who died in a car accident due to its high speed, which led the vehicle to topple over read more The Supreme Court has said that insurance companies are not bound to cover the costs of a road accident caused by the recklessness of the driver, in a stark reminder to rash drivers. According to a report by Times of India, a bench consisting of Justices P S Narasimha and R Mahadevan refused to give relief to a wife, son and parents of a man who died in a car accident due to its high speed, which led the vehicle to topple over. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD The top court dismissed a compensation claim filed by the family of a deceased man, who had sought Rs 80 lakh from United India Insurance Company. The bench ruled that family members are not entitled to an insurance payout when the death results from the deceased's own mistake, with no external factors involved. The Court upheld the Karnataka High Court's decision from November 23 last year, which had also rejected the claim. The case finds its origins in an accident that happened in 2014 when N S Ravisha was driving from Bengaluru's Mallasandra to Arasikere city along with his sister, her children and father. The vehicle met with an accident as the man drove rashly and at high speeds, breaking traffic rules. Ravisha died from injuries sustained in the accident. His wife, son, and parents filed a claim seeking Rs 80 lakh in compensation, arguing that he was a successful contractor earning ₹3 lakh per month. However, the police chargesheet stated that the accident was caused by Ravisha's rash and negligent driving. Based on this, the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal dismissed the family's compensation request. During a hearing at the Karnataka High Court, Ravisha's kin's claim that the accident was caused by a burst tyre was rejected, with the court saying, 'when a claim is made by legal representatives of the deceased, it has to be proved that the deceased was not himself responsible for the accident by his rash and negligent driving and it would also be necessary to prove that the deceased would be covered under the policy so as to make the insurance company liable to make payment to the legal heirs.' STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD The court added, 'In the instant case, admittedly the accident occurred due to the rash and negligent driving of the deceased himself and he being a self-tortfeasor, the legal heirs cannot claim any compensation for his death'.

Paresh Rawal Apologised To Priyadarshan For Leaving Hera Pheri 3: 'I'm Sorry I Left'

Last Updated: Paresh Rawal apologised to Priyadarshan for quitting Hera Pheri 3, calling it a personal decision. The heartfelt apology paved the way for his return to the film. In a heartening development for fans of Indian comedy cinema, veteran actor Paresh Rawal is officially back on board for Hera Pheri 3, months after stepping away from the project. Director Priyadarshan, who helmed the original cult classic in 2000, has now opened up about the emotional and surprising turn of events that brought Rawal back into the fold. In a candid conversation with Mid-Day, Priyadarshan revealed that Paresh personally called to apologise for his earlier exit from the film. 'Both Akshay and Paresh called to say everything is sorted. I was in shock when Paresh said, 'Sir, I'm doing the movie.' He added, 'I've never had anything but respect for you. I've done 26 films with you, and I'm sorry for leaving. There were some personal issues.' He told me that he, Akshay, and Suniel met and cleared the air." The director, who is currently working on the script, stressed how crucial all three characters—Raju, Shyam, and Baburao—are to the franchise. 'Whatever I do, I cannot surpass Hera Pheri. The second part was bad—it was a copy of a Hollywood film. But Hera Pheri can't happen without all three. In fact, a diamond merchant once approached me on a flight and said, 'Please bring back Paresh Rawal. We won't watch it otherwise,'" he shared. Earlier this year, fans were left disheartened when Paresh announced he would not be returning to the iconic role of Baburao Ganpatrao Apte, citing personal reasons and creative differences. The surprise exit was reportedly followed by Akshay Kumar filing a legal notice, given the impact on production timelines. However, things seem to have taken a positive turn in recent weeks. During a recent podcast with Himanshu Mehta, Paresh confirmed his return, quipping, 'The film was going to happen anyway; we just needed a bit of fine-tuning. After all, everyone involved—Priyadarshan, Akshay, Suniel—we've been friends for so many years. It was just a matter of realigning." With the OG trio of Akshay Kumar, Suniel Shetty, and Paresh Rawal now reunited, anticipation for Hera Pheri 3 has skyrocketed. The first film, released in 2000, earned a cult following for its slapstick comedy, unforgettable dialogues, and brilliant chemistry between the leads. Its sequel, Phir Hera Pheri (2006), while less acclaimed critically, became a major box office success. Now, with Priyadarshan back in the director's chair and the original cast reunited, Hera Pheri 3 promises a nostalgic yet fresh comic ride. Fans can't wait to revisit the chaotic world of Raju, Shyam, and Babu Bhaiya—and see what hilarious mess they land themselves in next. First Published: July 03, 2025, 13:03 IST

You Won't Believe What Happened When aespa's Winter Took Her Brother to an SM Audition_The Sibling Glow-Up Story You Need to Hear

1 2 When Your Sibling Steals the Spotlight (and Maybe Your K-pop Dream?) Ever felt like your sibling just had to outshine you at the worst possible moment? Well, aespa's Winter knows exactly how that feels! On a recent episode of the YouTube show 'Salondrip2' with TEO, Winter got real about her SM Entertainment audition days-and trust us, it's the kind of sibling drama every Indian household can relate to. Winter, whose real name is Kim Minjeong, shared that she started her trainee life in 2017, grinding for about three and a half years before debuting. But here's the kicker: when she first went to audition for SM, the staff didn't just notice her-they were totally taken by her older brother's looks! Apparently, the SM team tried to scout her brother right there. Imagine prepping for your big break, only for your brother to walk in and steal the show with his face. Classic elder sibling move, right? Winter joked, "I thought we came here for me! Was it really that easy for him?" She even admitted that she sings better than her brother (sibling rivalry, anyone?), but gave him some credit by saying, "He's not bad, though." K-pop Trainee Life: Not All Glam, Lots of Grind Winter didn't just spill about her brother-she also opened up about the intense life of a K-pop trainee. She revealed that she auditioned for SM three times before finally making it, proving that persistence pays off (and maybe a little sibling competition helps too). by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Adidas Three Shorts With 60% Discount, Limited Stock Available Original Adidas Shop Now Undo She talked about the hard work behind aespa's latest track, 'Dirty Work.' According to Winter, the choreography took ages to perfect because they combined moves from around ten different dance teams! That's like prepping for your college fest dance, but times ten, and with the whole world watching. Winter also mentioned something called "Kwangya lessons" (think of it as a K-pop version of Hogwarts classes). Even before debuting, she and the other aespa members had to attend these futuristic lessons, which included interacting with their virtual 'ae' counterparts. She confessed, "We'd just sit there, totally zoned out, while being told about all these updates. The lessons never end!" Sibling Rivalry, K-pop Style: Why We All Get It Let's be real-every Indian youth has felt the sting of a sibling being the family favorite, especially when relatives can't stop praising their "good looks" or "talent." Winter's story is basically every family function ever, just with K-pop and a global stage. But what's cool is how she turned that moment into motivation. Instead of sulking, Winter worked harder, sang better, and now she's living her dream while her brother's probably just the "handsome guy" in the family WhatsApp group. When Your Dreams Get a Plot Twist, Just Dance It Out Winter's journey is a reminder that even when life throws you a curveball (or a super good-looking sibling), you can still own your moment. Whether it's surviving K-pop trainee life or just trying to get your parents to notice your college achievements over your sibling's, the hustle is real-and sometimes, a little drama just makes the story better. If you've ever been overshadowed by a sibling, just remember: your glow-up is coming. And hey, maybe you'll get your own viral moment, too. P.S. Winter's story made me think of all those times my cousins tried to upstage me at family events. But like her, I just keep dancing to my own beat.
