I learnt she had gone to Benaras where she got fever and on her return to Mumbai, she tested positive for coronavirus. I tried reaching out to her, but both of her numbers were switched off. Then around 8.30 pm, actor Anand Prabhu, who played our son on the same show, informed me about her demise. This has been so shocking because she had so much to achieve in life. She had plans. Abhilasha was kind-hearted and such a hardworking artiste. It’s a huge loss to the industry.”Many Marathi actors and Abhilasha Patil's friends from the industry mourned the actress's death.

One of her co-stars, Kavitta Amarjeett had also penned a tribute on social media and shared, “#abhilashapatil will miss u, not done 5 years back you met me on the sets of a film that we did together. Since then we became very good friends....a lot of sharing always happened between both of us. Until the last phone call you discussed about optimism and compassion in these crazy times.. How could you leave us just like that suddenly???? I'm not able to come to terms with it. A friend whom I could relate to has gone ....always struggling for good opportunities and I felt sooo proud of you for what you were.....I will miss u Abhilasha ......With a heavy heart I say RIP.”Abhilasha Patil is among a few celebs who succumbed to Covid-19 in the second wave of the pandemic.
