Malini Nanku-Malhotra: Dead at 61


As many of you are already aware by now, Trollywood's one and only veteran actress who ruled the hearts of thousands for decades, passed away on June 6, 2017. At T-Fare, we have known about Malini's passing for several months now but out of respect for the wishes of her son and also her best friend Neetya, we did not publish this news. We were asked to wait for a 1 year period after her death, which expires today. 
 
We wanted to share news of her sad demise with all her fans and well-wishers as soon as we could legally do so. Her son is still not ready to make a comment. Her best friend Neetya stated, "words seem inadequate to express the sorrow felt by the loss of Malini. Like her favorite character Chandramukhi, she had a heart of gold and loved all her fans for their support. I can only assure her fans that Malini will never be forgotten and she is definitely in a better place now." Meanwhile, Deepika Parajuli her top rival and arch-nemesis stated, "I was utterly shocked beyond belief when I heard the terrible news of Maliniji's passing. My heart goes out to her children. Trollywood has lost it's biggest talent, who left behind a legacy - in her films." Meanwhile, her estranged friend Monisha Rai was "stunned, and honestly a bit uncertain about everything that happened. It was quite a mysterious death to begin with and left many unanswered questions for me. The way things were hidden for 1 entire year was very odd. Also, the circumstances surrounding her heart attack and quick funeral were puzzling because one thing we knew about Malini was that she was extremely health conscious. She just doesn't fit the profile of someone who would get a sudden heart attack. Maybe it is because there are so many lawyers and secrets surrounding her passing that make it difficult for me to digest. In any event, my thoughts and prayers go out to her family." Finally, we reached out to Malini's ex-husband, but Mr Malhotra declined to comment on this case. 
During this 1 Year Anniversary of Malini's passing, we will continue to provide further coverage and comments from Trollywood.
