She is not the first one whose death rumours have hit the internet. Recently, singer Lucky Ali, veteran actor Arvind Trivedi, who played the iconic role of Ravana in Ramanand Sagar's Ramayan, too have found rumours of their death running wild on social media. 

Thankfully, all of these turned out to be false and misleading. 

Meenakshi Seshadri, who ruled the 80s and early 90s left the showbiz world after marrying an investment banker named Harish Mysore in 1995. She moved to the US and is currently settled there.

Meenakshi was a popular name back in those days and starred in movies like Damini, Hero, Meri Jung, Allah Rakha, Gangaa Jamunaa Saraswathi, Shahenshah, Bees Saal Baad and Kshatriya to name a few.

Her on-screen pairing with Sunny Deol, Jackie Shroff and Rishi Kapoor was liked by the audiences.
