Veteran actress Sripadha who worked in Hindi and Bhojpuri films, died of COVID-19 complications on Wednesday (May 5, 2021).

Cine And TV Artistes' Association General Secretary (CINTAA) General Secretary Amit Behl confirmed the news of her demise while speaking with ETimes and said, "The second wave of COVID has taken too many precious lives. What has already been written in the media about the people who have passed away don't need to reiterate but yes, Sripada was a senior member of our fraternity."

Speaking about her filmography, he added, "She has done incredible work down South and as well as in Hindi cinema. It is very unfortunate that we have lost a very senior actress. We pray that her soul rests in peace. We also pray that the second wave of the pandemic doesn't snatch too many precious lives especially from our trade."
