Vaibhavi Upadhyaya, 38, died in a car accident on Tuesday. The actress, who was gearing up for her debut in Gujarati films, has been part of many shows, including CID and Adaalat, and is best known for her role in Sarabhai vs Sarabhai, where she played Jasmine.

She met with an accident while she was travelling in Himachal Pradesh. She was with her fiancé Jay Gandhi, a businessman, when the accident took place. He survived with a few injuries. The two got engaged on February 14 this year and were planning to tie the knot soon. Her last rites were conducted in Mumbai yesterday.

Rajesh Kumar, who played Rosesh in Sarabhai vs Sarabhai, shared, “I am unable to come to terms with this. After Sarabhai vs Sarabhai, we kept in touch. The last time we connected was two months ago over messages. She was a happy-go-lucky person, who would always be smiling. Vaibhavi loved being in the mountains and whenever I spoke to her, she would be heading on a trip to the mountains. She also had a photographic memory and could remember all the lines on the page by just looking at it. She was a very talented and beautiful soul.”
