26-year-old Instagram influencer dies after falling into Kumbhe waterfall gorge in Maharashtra
Raigad/IBNS: A 26-year-old Instagram influencer died after falling into a gorge at Kumbhe waterfall near Maharashtra's Raigad on Wednesday.
Aanvi Kamdar, a resident of Mumbai, fell into a 300-foot gorge while shooting a reel, media reports said.
She had embarked on a trip with seven friends to the waterfall on July 16. The outing took a tragic turn around 10.30 am Wednesday when Aanvi slipped into a deep crevice while shooting a video.
Local authorities swiftly responded to the emergency, and a rescue team rushed to the scene.
Additional support was sought from the Coast Guard, Kolad rescue team, and Maharashtra State Electricity Board staff.
After a six-hour rescue operation, Aanvi was rescued from the gorge but died due to severe injuries sustained in the fall at the Managaon sub-district hospital after she was brought in.
In the aftermath, local authorities, including the Tehsildar and Managaon police inspector, appealed to tourists and citizens alike to enjoy tourism responsibly and prioritise safety while exploring the Sahyadri ranges.
They emphasised the need to avoid risky behaviours that could endanger lives.
