He said, “Yes, it is true Amandeep is not more. Her body gave up. She had jaundice but we are not in the state to ask the doctor for details.”

Dolly had earlier left ‘Jhanak’ citing health issues. She was also part of hit television serials like ‘Bhabhi’, ‘Kalash’, ‘Meri Aashiqui Tum Se Hi’, and ‘Khoob Ladi Mardaani Jhansi Ki Rani’.
