As per a Femina report, Rinky had been battling cancer since 2022. She had been diagnosed with Malignant Phyllodes Tumor (breast cancer). After her initial operation, the cancer spread to her skull, resulting in a brain tumour, and then to her lungs. Sadly, she could no longer tolerate chemotherapy because her health had deteriorated.

Model Priyanka Kumari had earlier shared pictures of Rinky's reports to raise funds for her treatment. 

She had writtenon on her Instagram page, "Hi, we are raising funds for our friend Rinky Chakma. Her family has exhausted all their funds because she has been battling cancer for the past two years. Earlier, she had breast cancer for which she was operated on, but later it metastasized into her lungs and brain. She was taking chemo sessions at Aiims, Delhi. Unfortunately, her health deteriorated, and she was unable to sustain chemo further, so she was discharged until her health restores. On February 22nd, she was admitted to Max Hospital Saket in an emergency. She is currently on a ventilator in ICU as one of her lungs is almost non-functioning now. We need to raise funds so that her treatment can continue. Please consider donating, and please share this link as much as possible".
