Eminent Artist Jyotsana Bhatt passed away at 82 in her residence in Vadodara on Saturday. Jyotsana Bhatt suffered a brain stroke on Thursday and was on ventilator support at a private hospital for three days. According to her family members, Jyotsana Bhatt suffered from hypertension and was on medication for related complications. Her daughter Jaii told The Indian Express, “Around midnight on Thursday, Eminent Artist Jyotsana Bhatt suffered a massive brain haemorrhage.

We rushed her to a private hospital, where she slipped into a deep coma and was on ventilator support. The doctors had told us that she could live on ventilatory support for a couple of months, but we thought it would be best if we brought her home to be in the midst of loved ones.” Jaii added that the family brought Bhatt home at around noon on Saturday on oxygen support. “Within a few minutes, she had left us,” she said.
