Sridevi passed away in Dubai on February 24, 2018, after accidentally drowning in a bathtub at a hotel while attending a family wedding. In an earlier interview with The New Indian, Boney Kapoor spoke about her passing, revealing that Sridevi had often followed very strict salt-free diets, which sometimes led to blackouts.
Boney Kapoor stated, "It was not a natural death; it was an accidental death. I had decided not to speak about it because I spoke about it for almost 24 or 48 hours together when I was being investigated and interrogated. In fact, the officers said we had to go through this because there was a lot of pressure from Indian media. And they discovered there was no foul play. I went through all the tests, including lie detector tests and all those things. And then, of course, the report which came clearly stated it was accidental."
