MUMBAI: Last week ended on a gloomy note with the news of YouTuber and Instagrammer Danish Zehen’s untimely death. Danish passed away in a tragic accident near Vashi Bridge when his car spun out of control and hit a bus, causing him to instantly lose his life. A friend accompanying Danish was rushed to a Vashi hospital and is recovering. His funeral followed soon at his Kurla residence where a humungous number of the people turned up to pay their last respects.

Danish, who was fairly popular on Instagram and Youtube for his videos, shot to instant fame when he participated in Vikas Gupta’s reality show on MTV titled Ace of Space. Even though he exited the show mid-way due to a family emergency, he was brought back a few weeks ago alongside Fiza Khan as a wildcard, with the latter being chosen.

In a recent episode of the show, Vikas broke the news to the remaining housemates, who were inconsolable on hearing about Danish’s death. The makers got the family members to talk to the contestants to calm them down.

However, Bigg Boss 11 contestant Shilpa Shinde has referred to Danish’s accident as mysterious and has called for an ‘immediate’ and ‘serious investigation’.
