New Delhi: 'Sarabhai Vs Sarabhai' actor Vaibhavi Upadhyaya died in a road accident in Himachal Pradesh recently. Her fiance Jay Gandhi, who was with her their car met with an accident, posted an emotional note on Instagram remembering the late actor.  

Posting a photo with Vaibhavi, he wrote, “I only miss you every minute of everyday. You will never truly be gone, I will hold you safe in my heart forever.Gone too soon😭 RIP my Gundi, I love you❤️” 

Vaibhavi and Jay were on a road trip in Himachal Pradesh when they met with an accident. Earlier, in a conversation with ETimes, Jay had rubbished the reports that Vaibhavi was not wearing a seat belt. 

“There is a notion that you speed on road trips, but that was not the case. Our car was standing still and waiting for the truck to pass. I am not in a state to talk much, but I wanted to ensure that don’t assume that we were not wearing seat belts or were speeding,” he was quoted as saying by ETimes. 

Vaibhavi’s brother Ankit also spoke to ETimes and shared the details about the incident and how he got the news.   

“I got a call from the police in Himachal Pradesh. They said that my sister Vaibhavi had died in a road accident. I just couldn't believe it. I went numb. I was told that a heavy vehicle had brushed her vehicle, that too at its rear when it had almost passed it cleanly, and her car toppled in a ditch (valley). My sister was thrown outside the car.”  

He also shared that neither Jay was driving fast nor the reports of Vaibhavi not wearing seat belts are true.  

“Jay and Vaibhavi's car was adjacent to a ditch, which was between two shops- when the truck coming from the opposite direction brushed it. Mind you, Jai was not driving fast. They were not drunk either. And let me tell you that Vaibhavi was wearing a seatbelt. The postmortem clearly revealed that there were marks on her body that indicated that the seatbelt had been worn. Her seatbelt must have apparently broken when the car toppled. Jai too was wearing his seatbelt. Vaibhavi was hurt in the ribs and her lungs and liver ruptured,” he told ETimes. 

Vaibhavi and Jay got engaged on February 14 this year.
