A native of Bhavnagar, Saurashtra, Rathod was 83 years old and his nephew Jagruti and her son Rhythm survived.
“His uncle was in bed for a while,” Jagruti told Indian Express. He was diagnosed with Covid-19 a few months ago but has recovered. But due to age-related issues, I have been in bed ever since.” Rathod was single and moved to Ahmedabad with his nephew after leaving his acting in Mumbai.
