Television actress Manisha Yadav, known for playing Salima Begum in the Zee TV’s Jodha Akbar, passed away. The reason for her death is yet to be revealed, however, reports claimed that she passed away on October 1 (Friday) from a brain haemorrhage. Her co-star Paridhi Sharma, who plays Jodha in the show, took to her Instagram Story and confirmed the news. She wrote “This news is so heart breaking, Rip @manisha_Mann.”
Actress Paridhi Sharma, put up a condolence post on her Instagram. When we spoke to Paridhi, she said, “I wasn’t in constant touch with her after our show went off air. But we have a Whats App group which is named Mughals and all the actresses who were begums in the show are a part of that group. So that’s how we stay in touch and if anything important is to be shared about anyone’s life, we do that on the group. I got to know about this yesterday on the group and I was shocked.”
Paridhi further added, “Manisha was a wonderful actor to work with. Her energy was alway high and she was a chirpy person. We had a great time shooting together for the show. I remember she was always full of life. Hearing about her death is really saddening for me and what’s even more bothering is that she has a one-year-old baby. My heart goes out to her family.”
Manisha’s child turned a year old in July when she put up a post on her Twitter saying, lHappy 1st Birthday my precious baby!!!My little boy you have been such a light in my life during a season of a hard year. I’m so blessed and thankful to be your mumma. I love you so much.” In June she tweeted about her COVID vaccination dose. Her tweet read: “Finally got my first COVID-19 vaccine shot today.. glad it didn’t hurt much. Get vaccinated as soon as possible.we are in this together.”
