The second wave of coronavirus has affected the nation severely. As the death toll is rising each day, sad news from the entertainment industry is spreading shockwaves among the public. The recent news of the demise of actress Abhilasha Patil is unexpected and shocking even for her colleagues and actors from the industry. Abhilasha, who has starred in films such as Good Newzz and Chhichhore, passed away after she developed complications due to COVID-19.
While not many people were aware of the news, her co-star Sanjay Kulkarni told a popular website, "Last evening around six, I got a call from Jyoti Patil, who worked with us in BaapManus, about Abhilasha’s poor health. I learned she had gone to Benaras where she got a fever and on her return to Mumbai, she tested positive for coronavirus. I tried reaching out to her, but both of her numbers were switched off. Then around 8.30 pm, actor Anand Prabhu, who played our son on the same show, informed me about her demise. This has been so shocking because she had so much to achieve in life. She had plans. Abhilasha was kind-hearted and such a hardworking artiste. It’s a huge loss to the industry.” Abhilasha had also worked in some Marathi films like Te Aath Diwas, Pipsi, Bayko Deta Ka Bayko.
Before Abhilasha, the news of Special Ops actor Bikramjeet Kanwarpal came in. The actor had succumbed to coronavirus after fighting the battle for many days.
