Actor Parag Tyagi wrote a heartfelt note for his late wife Shefali Jariwala, who passed away at the age of 42, following a cardiac arrest. The sudden passing of Jariwala has sent shockwaves through the entertainment industry and left her fans in deep sorrow. She rose to fame with her bold performance in the 2002 remix music video "Kaanta Laga," becoming a household name and a cultural phenomenon of the early 2000s.

Parag took to his Instagram handle and shared an adorable picture of Shefali Jariwala. He wrote in the caption, "Shefali, Meri Pari — the ever-eternal Kaanta Laga — was so much more than what met the eye. She was fire wrapped in grace — sharp, focused, and fiercely driven. A woman who lived with intention, nurturing her career, her mind, her body, and her soul with quiet strength and unwavering determination. But beyond all her titles and achievements, Shefali was love in its most selfless form. She was sab ki maa — always putting others first, offering comfort and warmth simply through her presence."

"A generous daughter. A devoted and affectionate wife and a wonderful mom to Simba. A protective and guiding sister n maasi. A fiercely loyal friend who stood by those she loved with courage and compassion," he further aded.

Parag wrote, "In the chaos of grief, it’s easy to be swept away by noise and speculation. But Shefali deserves to be remembered by her light — By the way she made people feel. By the joy she sparked. By the lives she lifted. I’m starting this thread with a simple prayer: May this space be filled only with love. With memories that bring healing. With stories that keep her spirit alive. Let that be her legacy — a soul so radiant, she will never, ever be forgotten. Love you till eternity."
