Months after the sudden passing of TV and film personality Shefali Jariwala on June 27, 2025, her husband, actor Parag Tyagi, has made controversial public statements suggesting supernatural interference may have played a role in her death.
Tyagi made the remarks during a recent podcast appearance with television personality Paras Chhabra, where he spoke candidly about his belief that black magic was performed on Shefali in the days leading up to her demise. While acknowledging that many dismiss such ideas, Tyagi insisted that his conviction stems from personal experiences rather than imagination.
“I don’t think it, I know someone did it,” Tyagi said during the conversation, although he refrained from naming any individual he suspects. He clarified that his statements are based on what he describes as repeated emotional, mental, and physical sensations he experienced in the months before his wife’s death.
According to Tyagi, he felt an ongoing sense of unease and disturbance that intensified over time. He said these feelings were particularly strong during moments of prayer and devotion, when he experienced physical discomfort and an unexplained heaviness that led him to believe negative forces were at play.
Shefali Jariwala’s sudden death at the age of 42 had shocked fans and colleagues alike, with tributes pouring in from across the television and film industry. While official explanations focused on medical causes, Tyagi’s comments have now sparked fresh debate around grief, belief systems, and the psychological impact of loss.
As of now, there has been no official response from authorities or family members regarding Tyagi’s claims. The statements have nonetheless reignited conversations around how personal belief, trauma, and intuition shape the way individuals process unexpected loss.
