According to the post-mortem report, Bhayani was suffering from a heart abnormality known as hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOTC). This condition causes the walls of the heart to thicken, obstructing blood flow. The doctor from Rajkot civil hospital, who conducted the post-mortem, stated that the heart-related abnormality may have gone undiagnosed. Folk Singer Saichand Dies: Telangana Movement Hero Passes Away, Video Shows Moments When He Was Rushed to Hospital After Heart Attack.
