Jariwala was best known for her iconic single “Kaanta Laga”.

She gained popularity through her participation in reality shows like “Nach Baliye”, a dance-based show series, with her husband, and later, Salman Khan-hosted “Bigg Boss 13”.

The actor rose to prominence in 2002 with the massive popularity of “Kaanta Laga”, a remix of an old Lata Mangeshkar song from the 1972 movie “Samadhi”.(PTI)
