Influencer Falls To Her Death While Filming Content
The content creator, who currently has 292,000 Instagram followers, was reportedly visiting the Kumbhe waterfall. It is located roughly 80 miles from Mumbai. She gained popularity on social media for her travel and lifestyle tips.  Authorities report she visited the site with seven friends when the accident occurred. A fun day quickly turned tragic when she reportedly lost her footing. Kamdar was shooting content when she plunged 300 feet to her death. Aanvi, who was also an accountant, “fell on the hard, slippery patch of rocks
in the valley.” A rescuer stated she “couldn’t be spotted initially.” Once she was located, “she was sent up using a stretcher attached to rappelling ropes.”

It took 56 people to recover her body. Several different agencies were involved in her rescue.  Six individuals climbed down the hill, and 50 were “atop the hillock.” After about six hours, she was rescued. Aanvi didn’t die immediately from the fall. She was placed on a ventilator when rescuers reached her. She was then transported to Managon Taluka Government Hospital where she succumbed to her injuries.

Social Media Reacts To Aanvi’s Death
Kamdar made what would be her final post on July 15. She shared the top-five places to visit in India during the rainy season that were “cheap” and “not crowded.” Commenters under the post weighed in on the news of her death.

It was an accident, could’ve happened to anyone, media headlines are made for attention and they’re sadly negative. but please don’t let that slide the fact that she was a beautiful human. her work, her passion, her story & her, should be honorued at this time. please.

@jhaviibhatiaa said, “I am shook by the news. You were always the chirpy and kind person and I used to keep coming back to your page for any travel tips. Will miss you! Aanvi, I pray you rest in peace.”

“Very few People have the Honour to die while doing the thing they loved the most. Most of us are already dead inside doing the things we dont want to,” @mi_aadi said.

Rest well, baby girl.
