Actor-model Shefali Jariwala passed away in Mumbai on Friday night, between June 27 and 28. A popular name in the world of entertainment, Shefali would often make headlines for her beautiful photos with her husband, Parag Tyagi. However, not many know that this was her second stint in marriage. Shefali was previously married to music composer Harmeet Singh from the Meet Brothers duo. He is known for composing songs such as Main Tera Boyfriend, Baby Doll, Pink Lips, Radhe Radhe, and others.
Not many are aware that Shefali Jariwala was previously married to Harmeet Singh, one-half of the famous music duo Meet Brothers. The two got married in 2004 after a short period of dating. However, the relationship quickly took a difficult turn. In a past interview, Shefali opened up about the emotional strain it caused, emphasising that violence isn鈥檛 always physical and expressing that she often felt undervalued in the marriage.
In one of the her past interviews, Shefali spoke about how financial independence helped her make a bold choice back then. 鈥淏ecause I was earning and independent, I could walk away when things got too dark,鈥 she said. Her divorce to Harmeet was finalised in 2009, marking the end of a difficult chapter in her life. Soon after, she admitted to feeling a void and lost faith in love until a beautiful new chapter knocked on her door.
How did Shefali Jariwala meet second husband Parag Tyagi?
Parag Tyagi first met Shefali Jariwala at a dinner party hosted by a mutual friend. For him, it was love at first sight. However, the actor, still recovering from her past, took her time. After a difficult divorce with Harmeet Singh, she was cautious about trusting again. Parag didn鈥檛 rush her. Instead, he provided the support and care she needed. Over time, Shefali recognised the sincerity of his love, and after nearly four years of dating, the couple married in 2014.
Their wedding was initially planned for an earlier date, but they postponed it as Parag鈥檚 father was unwell at the time. Once everything stabilised, the couple finally celebrated their special day with close friends and family.
In a 2014 interview with Masala, Parag Tyagi, admiring Shefali Shah, said, 鈥淪hefali is a sweetheart. When her music video was out, people had another image of her, but she is completely the opposite of her screen image. She is a girl any guy would love to have as a wife. She is very caring and it shows. To judge a person, you need to look into what is happening in his or her home. She loves her parents and looks after them like a son would. She also looks after my parents. I don鈥檛 have enough time to spend with them, but she is always in touch with them.鈥
As for the latest update on Shefali Jariwala鈥檚 death, police officials and forensic experts are still probing the cause of her passing. Her body was sent to Cooper Hospital for postmortem on Friday night.
