Actress Suhani Bhatnagar, known for her role as young Babita Phogat in Aamir Khan’s ‘Dangal’ passed away in Delhi on Saturday at the age of 19. According to reports, she had suffered a leg fracture previously, and the medication she took during treatment caused fluid retention in her body, leading to her untimely death.
She had been undergoing treatment at AIMS Faridabad for some time. Now, her funeral will be held at the Ajronda crematorium in Sector 15, Faridabad. Suhani received praise for her performance in ‘Dangal’ and had also appeared in a few TV commercials after working with Aamir Khan, Sakshi Tanwar, and Zaira Wasim in the film.
