Sarabhai Vs Sarabhai actress Vaibhavi Upadhayay passed away on Monday in a car accident in Himachal Pradesh. Her last rites were held on Wednesday in Mumbai which were attended by several of her friends and industry colleagues including JD Majethia.
Following the funeral, Majethia spoke to the paparazzo Viral Bhayani and revealed what exactly happened with Vaibhavi’s car. He shared that the car was hit by a truck following which it fell in the valley. He also claimed that Vaibhavi was not wearing a seatbelt due to which she sustained serious injuries.
“She was in Himachal with her fiance. They were to marry in December. Their car was at a turn and the road was quite narrow. They stopped to let a truck pass. As the truck was passing them, it nudged the car and it slid into the valley. It toppled and she was not wearing a seatbelt,” he said. Watch the video here:

In another interview, JD Majethia expressed grief on Vaibhavi’s sudden demise. “Vaibhavi’s excellent acting abilities cannot be forgotten. I am still hoping that I got the wrong news last night and this was a bad dream. Why is destiny so cruel?” he told E-Times.
