Bollywood actress Sridevi died over the weekend after she drowned in a hotel bathtub in Dubai, despite initial reports stating that she went into cardiac arrest at a family wedding. She was 54.
Sridevi, said to be Bollywood’s first female superstar, was in the United Arab Emirates for her nephew’s wedding. She was found dead Saturday evening, the BBC reported.
Dubai police confirmed on Tuesday the actress’ cause of death was “due to drowning in her hotel apartment’s bathtub following loss of consciousness.”
“The case has now been closed,” Dubai police tweeted.
Two police officials also told The Associated Press that Sridevi, who is known only by her first name, was under the influence of alcohol at the time of her death.
Her brother-in-law, Sanjay Kapoor, had told an Indian newspaper that she died of cardiac arrest. It’s unclear how cardiac arrest was linked to the accidental drowning.
