Parag Tyagi shares emotional photos of Shefali Jariwala

Weeks after the untimely demise of actress and model Shefali Jariwala, her husband, actor Parag Tyagi, continues to honour her memory through poignant social media posts that have struck an emotional chord with fans and loved ones.

Shefali, remembered by many for her electrifying presence in the iconic early-2000s remix track Kaanta Laga, passed away in June after a sudden cardiac arrest.

In his latest post, Tyagi shared a touching video of Shefali enjoying time with her young nephew and niece. The footage shows her laughing and playing with the children—an insight into her warm, affectionate side. Captioning the clip with evident affection, Tyagi wrote, "The Best maasi in the universe. Arya, Kian doing Masti with masti khor maasi (fun aunt). She always loves her bachchas (kids) so much ."

This post follows several earlier tributes in which Tyagi shared photos and videos from their life together, including one particularly heartfelt post simply captioned "Together Forever." His consistent outpouring of grief and love has moved many, but also drawn criticism from a few who questioned the frequency of his posts. In response, Tyagi didn’t hold back. He wrote candidly, "For those who r trying to garner attention by saying I shall not post so soon. Bhai sab log aapki tarah nahi hote (Not everyone is like you)."

A prayer meet for Shefali was held five days after her death, drawing close family and friends to mourn and celebrate her life in a solemn gathering in Mumbai. The actress was rushed to Bellevue Multispeciality Hospital by Parag Tyagi following a cardiac arrest but was declared dead on arrival—an event that stunned the entertainment world and her fanbase.

Shefali Jariwala’s passing has left a profound void, but her legacy lives on through the memories she created, the people she touched, and the enduring love of those closest to her.
