The sudden demise of actress and dancer Shefali Jariwala has left the entertainment industry and her fans in shock. As tributes continue to pour in, a fresh controversy has surfaced following a social media post by Mallika Sherawat. Just a day after Shefali’s passing, Mallika’s video advocating against Botox and cosmetic fillers has sparked backlash, with many viewing it as ill-timed and insensitive. Among the loudest voices of criticism is Rakhi Sawant, who called out Mallika for allegedly taking a subtle dig at the late actress—adding fuel to an already emotionally charged moment.On June 29, 2025, Mallika shared a selfie video where she appeared without makeup or filters, promoting natural beauty and encouraging people to say no to Botox and artificial fillers. She emphasized embracing a healthier lifestyle. However, her message didn’t sit well with Rakhi Sawant, especially as reports emerged that the late Shefali Jariwala had been undergoing skin-lightening treatments using Vitamin C and Glutathione. Reacting strongly, Rakhi criticized Mallika for what she felt was an insensitive and poorly timed message, suggesting that it indirectly targeted Shefali and added that such remarks were inappropriate, particularly before the release of official forensic findings.In the caption of her selfie video, the Bollywood actress urged fans to say no to Botox and fillers, advocating for a more natural approach to beauty. She shared that instead of relying on artificial procedures to maintain youthfulness, she focuses on nurturing it from within through clean eating, staying hydrated, sleeping early, and regular exercise—encouraging her followers to embrace their natural glow.According to Mumbai Police, Shefali Jariwala’s autopsy was conducted at Cooper Hospital, but the cause of death has been reserved for now. As the exact reason remains unclear, the police have registered it as an accidental death.
