Did Kajal Aggarwal really die in a road accident?

The false report suggested that Kajal Aggarwal had been involved in a fatal crash, with some posts claiming she sustained major injuries. Within hours, the news was widely shared across platforms, causing confusion among her fans. The actor responded swiftly on Instagram Stories and X, confirming she had not been in any accident.

She wrote: “I’ve come across some baseless news claiming I was in an accident (and no longer around!) and honestly, it’s quite amusing because it’s absolutely untrue. By the grace of god, I want to assure you all that I am perfectly fine, safe, and doing very well.

How Kajal Aggarwal addressed the death hoax

Rather than ignoring the speculation, Kajal Aggarwal directly addressed the death rumour to put an end to the panic. She also made a point to remind her supporters not to spread falsehoods online. “I kindly request you not to believe or circulate such false news. Let’s focus our energies on positivity and truth instead,” she added.

Her statement was shared widely, with fans expressing relief and anger at the speed of misinformation. Industry colleagues also condemned the fake reports, calling them irresponsible and harmful.

Why do celebrity death rumours spread so fast?

Celebrity death hoaxes are unfortunately common in the digital age. From Amitabh Bachchan to Shah Rukh Khan, several Indian film icons have previously been declared dead in fabricated online stories. Such claims often use doctored screenshots of news outlets or misleading headlines to gain traction, relying on the emotional impact they create among fans.

In Kajal Aggarwal’s case, the road accident hoax highlighted how quickly misinformation can reach millions before being corrected. Experts warn that such incidents bring to light the urgent need for fact-checking and media responsibility.

Kajal Aggarwal’s recent and upcoming films

On the career front, Kajal Aggarwal continues to remain busy with projects across industries. She was recently seen in Vishnu Manchu’s Kannappa, playing the role of Goddess Parvathi alongside Akshay Kumar’s Lord Shiva. In Bollywood, she appeared in Sikandar with Salman Khan and Rashmika Mandanna.


Her upcoming slate includes Indian 3 with Kamal Haasan and, reportedly, Nitesh Tiwari’s Ramayana, where she is expected to portray Mandodari, Ravana’s wife, opposite Yash.

Riz Ahmed’s 'Hamlet' trailer drops murder suspicion into a South Asian business dynasty

Highlights:

  • Hamlet trailer lands with Riz Ahmed in the lead role
  • Film sets Shakespeare inside a wealthy British South Asian family
  • Directed by Aneil Karia and in cinemas 6 February 2025
  • Cast includes Morfydd Clark, Joe Alwyn, Sheeba Chadha and Art Malik

Riz Ahmed has entered Hamlet in a way British cinema has not quite seen. The new Hamlet trailer has been released by Universal, giving the first proper look at Aneil Karia’s modern take on Shakespeare and placing the story inside a British South Asian business empire. It is due in cinemas on 6 February, and the footage shows a tense, controlled Ahmed moving through grief, suspicion and family power.

The film teams Ahmed and Karia again after The Long Goodbye, which won the Academy Award for Best Live Action Short. That success informs this production. This is the first time a major UK studio release has grounded Hamlet within a South Asian household for a wide audience.
