As per a report from the Times of India, Kharat's uncle revealed that she had a history of heart problems and had bypass surgery approximately seven years ago.
Many netizens have commented under the video expressing concern, with a lot of them blaming the Covid-19 pandemic as well as the hastily developed vaccines for it. One user said, “Aisey Maamle corono kaal ke baad kaafi dekhne me mil rahe hai. Sarkar ko chahiye hai ki is par koi tatkaal jaanch bithaye aur pata kare ki aisa kyon ho raha hai aur kya kaaran hai.”
Another commenter said, “Such matters are coming in light daily basis...govt. should carry out proper investigation rather than covering up.”
Yet another user pointed to Covid-19 and its vaccine, saying, “Unproven Vaccine which was not tested properly before introduction. Pharma lobby made millions.”
