In the glitzy and glamorous world of showbiz, it's usually the dazzling and picture-perfect life of actors that comes to the forefront. However, what happens behind the scenes when the curtains fall is a lot more than what meets the eye. One such tale belongs to a show that dominated Indian Television and quickly became a household name with its popularity and success. The soap opera that we are talking about is none other than Sasural Simar Ka. First aired on 25th April 2011, this serial ran for many years till 2018. However, besides giving unforgettable characters that remain etched in the memories of audiences, the behind-the-scenes struggles and challenges of the actors from the show did not come into the limelight. Vaishali Thakkar The most heartbreaking tragedy happened with actress Vaishali Thakkar, who died by suicide on October 22 in Indore. Vaishali was only 30, and she took her life, leaving a note behind that revealed that she was harassed by her ex-boyfriend and his wife. Vaishali's sudden death left everyone in deep shock and pain. She played the role of Anjali Bharadwaj in Sasural Simar Ka and Sanjana in Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai. Ashiesh Roy Another Actor, Ashiesh Roy, who featured in this trending show, passed away due to kidney failure. He was battling a kidney ailment for a long time. What's heartbreaking is that Ashiesh was going through financial constraints. He had complained about a lack of funds and no work during lockdown. He had even requested financial help on social media in his final days. Vikas Sethi Another shocking death was that of actor Vikas Sethi in 2024. Vikas was a household name and had appeared in many famous soap operas like n Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, Kasautii Zindagi Kay, Kahiin To Hoga, Uttaran, and Sasural Simar Ka. He passed away at the age of 48 due to cardiac arrest. As per his wife, Vikas was struggling with financial stress and poor health for some time. These actors left the world too soon, leaving their fans and family in despair. There were some actors who left the world of acting to focus on their family life. Anirudh Singh Actor Anirudh Singh stepped away from the world of the limelight to save his marriage. The duo was living in a long-distance marriage as his wife, Aditi Oberoi, had been living in Dubai for five years. To deepen their distancing bond, Anirudh left acting and joined a garment factory as a senior designer. Deepika Kakkar Even Deepika Kakkar, the actress who plays the role of Simar, the lead, also left acting. She made waves online for her personal life – embracing motherhood, converting her religion, and changing her name to Faiza. She also recently recovered from Stage 2 liver cancer. While the star cast of Sasural Simar Ka entertained us with their unforgettable characters on screen, many of them were struggling in their real life, which was far more dramatic than anything shown on Television.

Falaq Naaz Takes A Dig At Khushi Mukherjee's Bold Outfits: ‘This Is Not Fashion'
Falaq Naaz stated that Uorfi Javed has carved out a niche for herself with headline-worthy and creative outfits and one shouldn't compare creativity with nudity. Television actress Khushi Mukherjee has been hogging headlines recently, and not for her acting projects, but for her bold fashion choices. The social media personality has sparked outrage for making public appearances in extremely revealing outfits that have gone viral across platforms. While the internet remains divided over her clothing, with many calling her fashion 'vulgar,' actress Falaq Naaz has been slamming her on the matter. Known for her role in Sasural Simar Ka, the actress earlier expressed her frustration with the government's double standards when it comes to public decency and civic penalties. This time, Falaq criticised Khushi for comparing herself with fashion influencer Uorfi Javed. She stated that Uorfi has carved out a niche for herself with headline-worthy and creative outfits, and one shouldn't compare creativity with nudity. She penned, 'Uorfi was creative. Wo plastic chamach se dress banati thi. Tyre se dress banati thi. Like you see in this picture, pizza se dress bana liya…… Wo ek spot rakhti thi spotting ke liye jahan media jaati thi and use cover karti thi… Uorfi ko chalte phirte kisne nahi kaha ki chaddi pehenao isko. (Uorfi was creative. She used to make dresses from plastic spoons. She used to make dresses from tyres. Like you see in this picture, she made a dress from pizza… She used to keep a spot where the media used to go and cover it… No one told Uorfi to make her wear an undergarment.)" Reacting to the backlash, the Splitsvilla fame has now taken to her social media and revealed that her looks are inspired by Hollywood celebrities like Paris Hilton, Jennifer Lopez, model Irina Shayk, and other runway models. In a lengthy note, she made it clear that she is 'not apologetic' for her outfits, as she likes to make daring decisions. Her post read, 'I wanted to remain SILENT until now!! But I saw that all the fingers were being pointed at me!! Yes, I should disregard that many of you have been supportive too, but… I would see that it's so easy to just abuse someone on social media, troll them, and come into the limelight. For people who have been asking me or asking everywhere else, is it vulgarity or fashion? n concluding that this is in no way any fashion statement. Well, let me tell you that I am someone who is bold and courageous, and I like to take daring decisions!" 'Yes, fashion sometimes fails, sometimes succeeds, but I'm not apologetic for wearing what I liked!! All my dresses, as you all can see, are inspired by Hollywood actresses/influencers or even runway models!! Yes, I live in a democratic country. It is not ruled by the Taliban that there should be a ban on the clothes that I wear!" she concluded. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Khushi Mukherjee (@khushi_mukherjee) Falaq Naaz made her acting debut with a cameo role in Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah. In 2011, she stepped in to play the role of Lakshmi and Sita in Devon Ke Dev…Mahadev. But it was her stint as Jhanvi Bharadwaj in Sasural Simar Ka from 2013 to 2017 that shot her to fame. The actress also showcased her talent in television shows like Pandya Store, Laal Ishq, Roop – Mard Ka Naya Swaroop, and Vish Ya Amrit: Sitara, among others. First Published:

Falaq Naaz Takes Dig At Khushi Mukherjee's Revealing Dress?; Asks Govt 'Why No Penalty'
Last Updated: Falaq Naaz questions why Khushi Mukherjee's revealing outfits aren't penalised, comparing it to restrictions on feeding stray dogs. Watch viral video now. Television actress Khushi Mukherjee has been the talk of the internet recently, and not for her acting projects. The former Splitsvilla contestant and social media personality has found herself in the spotlight for her bold fashion choices, frequently making appearances in extremely revealing outfits that have gone viral across platforms. While the internet remains divided over her clothing, actress Falaq Naaz—known for her role in Sasural Simar Ka—has now weighed in on the matter, without naming Khushi directly. In a strongly-worded Instagram video, Falaq referred to Khushi only as 'didi" and expressed her frustration with the government's double standards when it comes to public decency and civic penalties. 'Hi everyone," Falaq begins in the video. 'Toh pichle baar aap sabko yaad hoga maine ek didi ke upar video banayi thi. Yaha pe na baat bahot zyada didi se aage jaa chuki hai. It is not about any XYZ person. It is something jo main government se puchna chahti hoon—ke stray dogs ke upar itna udham mach jata hai, penalties, hum log khaana nahi khila sakte, log objection lete hai." View this post on Instagram A post shared by Falaq Naazz (@falaqnaazz) The actress then draws a direct comparison between penalties for feeding stray animals and the lack of regulation over provocative public attire. 'Iss tarah ka kuch pehenke agar sadak par nikal rahe hai toh uspe objection kyu nahi utha rahi hai government? Media jo inko cover kar rahe hai, aur aise logon pe jo cover ho rahe hai, aise logon pe penalty kyu nahi hai? Mujhe yeh janna hai." Falaq also made an emotional appeal to the public to raise this question with the authorities. 'So, jitne log yaha pe baithe hue hai, help me out, tag authorities, and I want the answer now ke yeh sahi hai. Aur agar yeh sahi hai toh stray dogs ko khaana khilane pe koi aawaz naa uthaaye. Agar nang pane mein aawaz nahi uthrahi, toh bachcho ko khaane khilane mein aawaz naa uthana." Khushi Mukherjee, on the other hand, remains unfazed as paparazzi videos of her continue to rack up views. While she has yet to respond directly to Falaq's comments, her wardrobe choices have certainly kept social media buzzing—and now, they've sparked a wider debate around societal norms, personal freedom, and public decency.
