Suhani Bhatnagar’s Reason Of Death 

The tragic passing of Suhani Bhatnagar follows her diagnosis of dermatomyositis, a rare autoimmune disorder, just two months prior. Despite intensive medical intervention, including steroid therapy to control the condition, Suhani's health rapidly declined. She was hospitalised at the All India Institute of Medical Sciences in New Delhi, where her condition deteriorated further, complicated by respiratory issues.

The actress' father Puneet Bhatnagar told ANI, "Even after putting her on a ventilator, her oxygen level was very low, and then yesterday evening at 7 pm, the AIIMS doctors said ‘she is not more.” 

Suhani Bhatnagar's unexpected death has shocked both the film industry and her admirers, who mourn the loss of a promising young actress.
