In a startling development, Spandana Raghavendra, the spouse of Kannada actor Vijay Raghavendra, has tragically succumbed to a heart attack while in a Bangkok hospital. The distressing incident occurred while Spandana was in Thailand with her family. According to the reports, Spandana’s low blood pressure is believed to have been a potential cause of the heart attack.
Hailing from a notable lineage, Spandana Raghavendra was the daughter of the distinguished retired Assistant Commissioner of Police, BK Shivaram. A prominent figure in Karnataka, BK Shivaram carved a remarkable reputation for himself within the law enforcement community, particularly in the realm of crime investigation. His contributions extend beyond his service, as he has also authored a series of insightful books focused on the intricacies of crime and policing.
Spandana, born in Bangalore and the daughter of the esteemed former police officer BK Shivaram, got married to actor Vijay Raghavendra in 2007. In addition to her marriage, she displayed her talent in the film industry, notably appearing in the 2016 movie “Apoorva” alongside Ravichandran. In addition to her acting career, she has also worked as a producer for some of Vijay Raghavendra’s films.
Presently, preparations are underway by the actor’s circle of family and companions to repatriate Spandana’s remains to Bangalore, where her final ceremonies will take place. Meanwhile, Vijaya Raghavendra finds himself in Bengaluru, awaiting the release of the movie “Kadda,” scheduled for August 25, and was slated to engage in its promotional activities.
