Satish Kaushik’s Wife Shashi Finally Speaks On Murder Claims By Delhi-Based Woman

Bollywood’s veteran actor and filmmaker, Satish Kaushik, passed away on 8 March 2023 at the age of 66. His untimely death was due to a sudden cardiac arrest in Delhi. Just a day after the news of his demise, the wife of a Delhi-based businessman, claimed that mayhaps the actor didn’t die of natural causes.

In his last Instagram post, Satish was seen celebrating Holi 2023 at the house of Javed Akhtar and Shabana Azmi. Recently murder accusations surfaced regarding his death and the late actor’s wife finally decided to take the rumours head-on.

Saanvi has come forward about the financial dispute with her husband.

In Saanvi’s official statement to the Delhi Police, she claimed that her husband was somehow involved in Kaushik’s death since he owed Rs 15 crore to the latter. She clearly stated that Vikas could not return the money and probably planned on killing the actor because of it. Reportedly, Satish was partying at Vikas’s farmhouse in Delhi before his death.

Shashi Kaushik, the late filmmaker’s wife, finally broke her silence regarding such rumours

She has called them false allegations and has accused Saanvi of deliberately defaming her late husband. Shashi is not at all happy with these twisted stories that are spreading like wildfire.

Satish Kaushik’s wife has spoken up regarding the attention-seeking murder allegations. She has claimed that Saanvi’s statement is clearly baseless and all the reports of financial transactions that have been produced are fake. She explained while talking to ABP News, that Satish and Vikas Malu were fast friends, and Malu never borrowed money from her husband.

She said,

“The cops have verified everything. I don’t understand how she is claiming that he had been administered drugs and murdered. I don’t understand why she is trying to defame my husband after he has passed away”

Shashi also claimed that Saanvi is probably planning to extort money from her husband, Vikas, and is thereby tainting Satish’s reputation in the process.

After Saanvi’s open allegations, Delhi Police had to initiate an inquiry into Satish Kaushik’s death. Further, they have revealed that no suspicious activity was involved in the late actor’s death, and he did die of a heart attack after all. Shashi also mentioned in the interview that Kaushik’s post-mortem report properly stated that he had 98% blockage and found no trace of drugs in his body.
