It has been reported that Chethana Raj has died after undergoing “fat-free” removal surgery at a private hospital in Bengaluru, Karnataka.
According to reports, the star, who was just 21, admitted to going to the surgery table for the procedure on Monday, May 17. The actress is believed to have died after suffering a cardiac arrest, following complications with breathing that caused fluid to mount up in her lungs.
It is understood that the movie star was moved from the cosmetic hospital and transferred to the ICU ward in Kaaade Hospital Manjunath Nagar and on arrival, medics are believed to have found the young star to be unresponsive with “no pulse”.
Doctors are said to have worked on Chethana, attempting to revive her through CPR for 45 minutes, which tragically proved to be unsuccessful in the end. Chethana was best known for her roles in the Indian TV series Geetha, Doresaani, and Olavina Nildana.
