Why Shefali Jariwala was taking skin glow and anti-ageing tablets? Final cause of death to be revealed in next two days

Popular actor and model Shefali Jariwala, widely remembered as the "Kaanta Laga girl," passed away at the age of 42 on Friday in Mumbai. Her sudden death has sent shockwaves across the entertainment industry and among fans, with many mourning the loss of a vibrant and much-loved personality. While the preliminary post-mortem has been completed, the final report determining the exact cause of death is expected to be released within the next two days.

Initial findings suggest that Shefali collapsed shortly after consuming food prepared the day before, following a fast observed for a Satyanarayan Pooja at her residence. She was rushed to Bellevue Multispeciality Hospital by her husband, actor Parag Tyagi, and a few others at midnight, where doctors declared her dead upon arrival. Reports now indicate that a sudden drop in blood pressure, or hypotension, is the suspected cause of death. However, only the final autopsy will confirm the exact medical reason.

What has drawn additional attention is the discovery of two boxes of tablets in her home—reportedly containing anti-ageing supplements, skin glow tablets, and vitamins. As reported by Indian Express, according to the police, Shefali had been taking these medications without medical supervision. Her family mentioned that she had never experienced any health issues because of them in the past, but the possibility that they contributed to her sudden collapse cannot be ruled out. The exact composition of these supplements and whether they interacted adversely with her fasted state remains under investigation.

What Is Anti-Ageing Medication? understanding the risks and realities

Anti-ageing medications refer to a range of drugs, supplements, and compounds marketed to slow down or delay the visible and cellular effects of ageing.

These products typically aim to reduce wrinkles, improve skin texture, boost energy levels, and enhance overall vitality. However, their effectiveness and safety often vary greatly, especially when used without medical supervision.

The actor’s choice to self-medicate, though common among celebrities seeking quick beauty or wellness results, highlights a larger issue within the entertainment industry.

The police have been thorough in their investigation, already recording statements from 14 people including family, household staff, and close friends. No signs of foul play have been found so far, and the case appears to be a tragic health-related incident.

As fans await the final post-mortem report, the entertainment world mourns a bright star who left too soon.
