Popular food influencer, Rajani Jain, famously known as Chatori Rajani, recently shared the most heartbreaking chapter of her life — the untimely demise of her 16-year-old son, Taran Jain, in February 2025. After four months of unimaginable grief, Rajani finally spoke out about how she found out about the tragedy, the moments that followed, and the baseless speculations she and her family had to endure online.
🕯️ Rajani Jain’s Son, Taran, Died In A Sudden Accident
Taran Jain, a young and bright student, was returning home from his tuition class — just another ordinary day — when an unfortunate road accident took his life. Rajani was not in the city at the time of the accident. When she received the news, she immediately sent friends, her manager, and other trusted people to the hospital.
She recalled in an emotional interview that there was no CCTV camera at the accident spot, but a few good Samaritans tried to help. One person picked Taran up despite the crowd’s hesitation, while another stopped his car and rushed them to the hospital. They broke multiple signals to get there in just 8 minutes, but tragically, Taran had already passed away.
💬 “I Knew He Was Gone Even Before Seeing Him”
In a trembling voice, Rajani described how she couldn’t reach the hospital on time and relied on her manager for updates. But deep down, she already knew what had happened. During a video call, she caught a glimpse of her son lying on a stretcher before someone cut the call. She said:
“I shouted, cried, and even broke my phone. My husband lied that our son was in the ICU, but I knew the truth. I just broke down at my friend’s house.”
🎥 Social Media Trolls Claimed She Was “Hiding” Something
After the tragedy, Rajani shared a heartfelt post requesting prayers for her son’s peaceful journey. But soon after, YouTubers and social media users began circulating false theories. Some claimed she skipped legal procedures, others questioned why no case was filed, and some even accused the family of wrongdoing.
Rajani clarified:
“Some said the body never came home and went directly to the cremation ground. Others asked why there’s no police case. They don’t know anything and just sit at home and make up things. Our son did come home, but we didn’t shoot videos — it was a personal moment.”
🕵️ “Police Are Doing Their Work”
Despite the online criticism, Rajani firmly stated that the police are actively investigating the case. She added that both she and her husband have no interest in digging deeper anymore because “knowing more won’t change anything now.” The pain of losing their only child is too great to endure.
