Sidharth Shukla, Bollywood reality TV and Instagram star, dead at 40
Sidharth Shukla shared a heartwarming final Instagram post praising frontline “warriors” — just days before he tragically died at the age of 40.
The popular Indian reality TV star, who was part of the long-running show “Balika Vadhu,” reportedly suffered a massive heart attack on Thursday.
Just days before his passing, Shukla paid tribute to “superheroes in white capes, the nursing staff and their countless sacrifices”.
“To all the frontline warriors, a thank you from the heart!,” he posted. “You risk your lives, work for countless hours, and comfort patients who couldn’t be with their families.
He continued, “You truly are the bravest! Being on the frontline surly isn’t easy, but we really appreciate your efforts.”
The touching post received nearly 850,000 likes as of Thursday morning. Shukla, who had 3.8 million followers on Instagram, appeared to be voicing his support for a new show on Amazon Prime called “Mumbai Diaries 26/11.”
The show is a medical thriller set in the emergency room of a hospital, which looks at the challenges faced by nurses and doctors.
A senior doctor at the Cooper Hospital in Mumbai said Shukla was rushed to hospital on Thursday.
“Initial reports indicate that he died of a heart attack,” he told the Hindustan Times.
“We, however, won’t be able to confirm the cause of his death until we complete the post mortem.”
Shukla is survived by his mother and two sisters.
Shukla, who made his acting debut in 2008, made appearances in popular shows such as “Aahat,” “Love U Zindagi” and “CID. ” And in 2014, he made his Bollywood debut, playing a supporting role in Karan Johar-produced “Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania.”
But Shukla achieved his major breakthrough with the popular serial “Balika Vadhu,” in which he played the main lead.
He later made appearances in reality shows such as “Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa Season 6,” “India’s Got Talent,” “Khatron Ke Khiladi 7,” “Bigg Boss 13,” as well as “Bigg Boss 14.”
Tributes pour in
The star’s sudden death has rocked his fans, film colleagues and fellow celebrity contestants.
Indian actor and comedian Sunil Grover said: “Shocked and sad to know about Sidharth Shukla. Gone too soon. Prayers. Rest in peace.”
Actor Manoj Bajpayee said: “Words will fail to describe the shock and sense of loss of his near and dear ones.”
Indian model, actress and singer Himanshi Khurana wrote: “Oh my God. It’s hard to believe. RIP Sidharth Shukla.”
Bollywood actress Koena Mitra added: “Deeply saddened! We met for just 14 days, we fought a lot and parted ways. Never spoke again.
“Your sudden demise has taught me unconditional forgiveness! I forgive everyone & seek forgiveness from whoever I may have disappointed. RIP Sid.”

Actress Anne Heche, known for her roles in such films as Donnie Brasco, Volcano and I Know What You Did Last Summer, was involved in a fiery car crash in the Mar Vista area of Los Angeles on Friday.
According to TMZ, Heche was driving a blue Mini Cooper and had first crashed into the garage of an apartment complex. Residents of the apartment complex tried to get her out of the vehicle but she backed up and sped off.
Footage of Heche speeding down the streets of her neighborhood had been obtained by TMZ as well as her initial encounter at the apartment complex.
In the first clip, you can hear her car crash towards the end. It has been reported that the actress crashed into someone’s home, causing her vehicle and the house to erupt into flames. Heche suffered severe burns and was resisting being taken away in a stretcher. You can also view footage of this via the TMZ article.
It has not been confirmed whether alcohol has been involved in the incident since her condition prevents doctors from performing any tests to determine if she was driving under the influence. She is currently intubated in the hospital but expected to live.

Stay CL4SSY, New York!
The state Department of Motor Vehicles nixed 3,752 requests for vanity license plates in the last three years because it deemed them too raunchy, radical or simply ridiculous.
New York’s personalized plates go for $60 initially, and then $31.25 annually for renewal. You can get any plate as long as no one else has it and it’s not offensive.
Odds are a request for a plate that marks a wedding anniversary or shows your allegiance to a team — like METS86 — will pass muster with the DMV gatekeepers.
Vulgarity won’t get you to first base.
So plates with the phrase LFGM — the acronym for Pete Alonso’s “Let’s F–king Go Mets” rallying cry — did not make the cut.
And you won’t see anyone driving around with the custom plates MILFDAD, AS5M4N and WLHUNG.
The DMV also put NICEBUNS, FATFANNY, GOTAPOOP and BENDOVER in the rear-view mirror.
One player unsuccessfully tried to score the plate YESDADDY, to no avail.
The DMV also shot down such dark requests as DEADGIRL, GENOC1DE, S8TAN, DETONATE and MURDERM3.
Getting political is a dead end too — FJOEBIDN, FDTRUMP and CNNLIES were nixed.
LUDEDUDE, NARCO, GOT METH and BLUNT also went up in smoke.
Staten Island attorney Bill Dertinger said his blue 1995 Jaguar SJS was tagged with ESQLTD after his company and his 2014 Porsche had the plate GHOSTGTS because the sleek sportscar was white.
“The plates can make you stand out — which can be a curse or a blessing,” the 54-year-old Dertinger said. “Make sure you don’t cut anybody off.”
There must be a New York Jets fan playing referee at the DMV because a request for the seemingly innocent plate GASE was sidelined. Ex-Jets head coach Adam Gase had an offensive 9-23 win-loss record during his forgettable two-year tenure.
The DMV would not reveal who gives the final yea or nay.
“The DMV reviews all custom license plate requests and works hard to ensure that any combinations that may be considered objectionable are rejected,” said agency spokesman Tim O’Brien.
He said guidelines on what plate combinations are restricted can be found on the DMV website: https://dmv.ny.gov/learn-about-personalized-plates. Approximately 50,000 personalized and custom plates are sold per year, O’Brien said.
