In an interview with Dainik Bhaskar, Dharmesh's mother said, "Dharmesh had had two heart attacks before this. He had gone with his friends for a Ladakh trip where he got his first heart attack four months ago. We got to know about it when he had his second heart attack at home a few months ago. He underwent a heart surgery as well but he never used to rest. He was crazy for rap and loved music more than his own life. My child is now gone, and I could not do anything to save him."

Dharmesh reportedly died on Sunday, March 20 but the news of his death surfaced two days later after Tod Fod's band Swadesi has confirmed the sad news via Instagram post.
