Revealing the incidents leading up to her mother's demise, Chahatt was quoted in TOI as saying, "It all happened in a fraction of a minute. None of us realized what happened. She was at my brother's mehendi ceremony and suddenly she vomited. She gasped for breath and in no time we lost her. We did not even get time to do anything. It was acute heart failure. I was not around her at that time and was at the Dadasaheb Phalke Awards, collecting my certificate. An hour later, I was collecting my mother's death certificate. I have no words to say anything about this anymore. It is a tough time and I know she is watching us. I will be strong for her."

The actress who has been coping with the loss posted a few emotional messages on her Instagram profile. The prayer meeting for Chahatt's mother will take place on February 23, at Rotary Club of Mumbai West, Juhu. Our heartfelt condolences to Chahatt and her family.
