Himu died on 2 November 2023 at the age of 37. There was a debate going on whether her death was a suicide or murder. In September 2024, it was confirmed that her death was a suicide.
Rapid Action Battalion arrested her boyfriend Mohammad Ziauddin alias Rufi alias Urfi Zia on accusation of being involved in her death. Rufi was also Himu's cousin's ex-husband who was currently married to someone else. According to Rufi, Himu committed suicide by hanging from a ceiling structure after an altercation with him regarding financial affairs. Himu and Rufi would often fight about marriage and gambling. Rufi has also said that she attempted to hang herself before when things did not go her way but she would eventually come down. Therefore, when she went to commit suicide, Rufi did not know that Himu would end her life at that moment. Rufi watched Himu committing suicide in her bedroom while he was sitting on her bed. When Himu hung herself, Rufi and makeup artist Mihir took her to the hospital, where the doctors confirmed she was deceased. When the doctors noticed a spot on her neck, they assumed that she might’ve committed suicide so they called the police. Before the police arrived, Rufi took Himu to the hospital and then later ran away with Himu’s two cell phones and her car. When the RAB caught Rufi, he said he wanted to sell those phones.
