Parag Tyagi reacts strongly to rumours about Shefali Jariwala taking anti-ageing injections before her death: says 'Negative stories are easier for people to believe'

Bigg Boss 13 fame Shefali Jariwala’s sudden demise left the entire entertainment industry in a state of shock. Her husband Parag Tyagi, along with her family and friends, was left heartbroken. However, soon after her demise, several rumours started spreading on social media claiming that she was taking anti-ageing injections and followed fasting routines, which allegedly caused a cardiac arrest. Parag, who is still trying to come to terms with the loss and has dedicated his life to the memory of his wife, has now denied these rumours.During an interview with Fimlygyan, Parag was asked if Shefali Jariwala was taking injections to control her hunger for long hours, he denied the rumours and said, "Ham log sab kuch khate hain (We eat everything). We had Chinese food the night before she passed away. Hame jarurat hi kya hai bhookhe rehne ki (Why do we even need to stay hungry?). She is the fittest at this point of time in her pure life span mein. Bhookhe rehne se muh aapka murjha jata hai (Your face becomes dull when you stay hungry).”Parag further went on to deny rumours about Shefali Jariwala taking skin-lightening glutathione or anti-ageing injections and said, "Unko aur gore hone ki kya jarurat thi? Please mujhe bhi bataiye wo kon sa injection hota hai jo young rakhta hai. Agar aaj aisa hota to Ratan Tata ji bhi zinda hote. Ek toh WhatsApp university bahut badi hogyi hai, log padhte hain par research nahi karte. Aur logon ko negative cheezen easy to sell hoti hai. Toh I would request, doston mat karo na yaar (Why would she even need to become fairer? Please tell me too if there is really any injection that can keep a person young forever. If that were true, even Ratan Tata ji would still be alive today. WhatsApp University has become too powerful now. People read things but do not research properly. Negative stories are easier for people to believe and spread. So, I would request everyone, please don’t do this, friends).”For the uninitiated, Parag rushed Shefali to Bellevue Multispeciality Hospital on June 27 last year, where doctors declared her dead on arrival. While initially it was speculated that the actress died due to cardiac arrest, the exact reason for her death has not been revealed. The Mumbai Police later sent her body for a post-mortem to find out the exact reason behind her death. After the examination, police officials stated that the cause of death was still “reserved” and had not been confirmed yet. The actress is best remembered for her debut song, Kaanta Laga and her participation in Bigg Boss 13.
