Actress and model Shefali Jariwala passed away on June 27 in Mumbai at 42 reportedly due to cardiac arrest. She was rushed to Mumbais Multispecialty hospital by her husband Parag Tyagi and was declared dead upon arrival. Her sudden demise came across as a huge shock for everyone in the entertainment industry along with her fans and admirers. Shefali was best remembered for her iconic remix song Kaanta Laga (2002). She became an overnight sensation after the release and created quite a stir with her bold party girl appearance in the song. However did you know Bollywood superstar Salman Khan disliked the song when he first heard it? Yes you read that right! Why Salman Khan got angry over Kaanta Laga? In a conversation with Hindi Rush the music video directors Radhika Rao and Vinay Sapru revealed that not everyone welcomed the songs bold and rebellious visuals including Salman Khan. They said that he was angry with the remix and even scolded them. Vinay recounted A big actor called us to his house and he told us ‘Main tumhe samjha raha hoon Radhika Vinay yeh jo sexy kaam hai kam kiya karo acha nahi hota (I’m trying to make you understand don’t do such sexy songs it doesn’t look good)’. He just said ‘You’ve got nice pure minds’. The actor in question was none other than Salman Khan as revealed. How Salman Khan became the inspiration behind the Kaanta Laga song? Interestingly the duo explained that Salman Kahn was a sort of inspiration behind the song. We were doing cute and innocent songs with Falguni Pathak. We were doing songs with Jagjit Singh and Pankaj Udhas. As creative people we wanted to evolve… One day we went to Salman Khan’s house. He was exercising while listening to a Jhankaar Beats remix of a Kishore Kumar song. An idea sparked and that’s what began the remix trend in India. We made ‘Kaliyon Ka Chaman’ ‘Kaanta Laga’ ‘Chadti Jawani’… The sound organically reminds you of a nightclub to a sensual visualisation. Radhika and Vinay shared. Shefali garnered instant popularity among the youth following the release of Kaanta Laga. Her mesmerising beauty and peppy dance moves soared her career to new heights. After her rise to fame she even ventured into the Hindi film industry and appeared alongside superstars like Salman Khan Akshay Kumar and Priyanka Chopra in the 2004 romantic comedy Mujhse Shaadi Karogi. She later went on to work with Salman Khan again when she participated in Bigg Boss 13 as a contestant.
