Shefali Jariwala, who rose to fame with the hit track Kaanta Laga, became a household name once again during her stint on
Bigg Boss 13
in 2019. Her appearance on the show brought back attention not just for her strong gameplay but also because of her on-screen dynamic with the late actor
Sidharth Shukla
, her former partner.
During a candid conversation in an interview with Siddharth Kannanback in 2020, Shefali opened up about her experience sharing the Bigg Boss house with Sidharth. She acknowledged that despite their past, their bond during the show was civil and mature. Their interactions grew stronger, driven by shared interests in topics like science, space, and even futuristic transport like bullet trains.
Parag Tyagi's Reaction: Was There Any Insecurity?
When asked whether her husband, actor Parag Tyagi, felt any insecurity about her reuniting with her ex on national television, Shefali was clear in her response. She said that Parag had full faith in her and that their relationship was built on a strong foundation of trust and communication.
She insisted that at no point did her bond with Sidharth create discomfort at home. In fact, Parag reportedly knew about Shefali's past with Sidharth even before her appearance on the show and remained supportive throughout.
Past Relationship and Cordial Ties
Shefali and Sidharth were in a relationship over 15 years ago, long before she married Parag in 2014. Despite their breakup, they remained respectful toward each other. Shefali had previously shared in another interview that even after parting ways, whenever they crossed paths in the industry, their interactions were always polite and warm. This mutual understanding was evident in the Bigg Boss house as well.
After Sidharth Shukla's untimely death in 2021, Shefali paid tribute to him on social media with a nostalgic picture from their Bigg Boss days. In her final post before her sudden passing, she remembered Sidharth with a heartfelt message, simply expressing that she was thinking of him. This emotional gesture resurfaced in public memory after Shefali's own tragic demise due to cardiac arrest at the age of 42.
