Her brother, Manpreet Sohi, confirmed the news and said, “She is no more. She passed away around 4 a.m. at the Apollo Hospital. She had cervical cancer which had spread to her lungs. We had admitted her last night to the hospital as her health had deteriorated. Amandeep passed away on Thursday night due to jaundice at the DY Patil Hospital. We are completely devastated.”

Why is cervical cancer a serious issue?
Cervical cancer is a type of cancer that affects the cervix, which is the lower part of the uterus that connects to the vagina. It is caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV), which is a common sexually transmitted infection. HPV can cause abnormal changes in the cells of the cervix, which can lead to cancer over time. Cervical cancer can be prevented by regular screening tests, such as Pap smear and HPV test, and by vaccination against HPV. Cervical cancer can be treated if detected early, but it can be fatal if it spreads to other parts of the body.
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), cervical cancer is the fourth most common cancer among women worldwide, with an estimated 604,000 new cases and 342,000 deaths in 2020. India has the highest burden of cervical cancer in the world, with an estimated 97,000 new cases and 60,000 deaths in 2020. Cervical cancer accounts for 17% of all cancer deaths among women in India.
The main reasons for the high incidence and mortality of cervical cancer in India are lack of awareness, stigma, low screening coverage, late diagnosis, and inadequate treatment. Many women do not seek medical help until they have advanced symptoms, such as bleeding, pain, or discharge. Many women also face barriers such as poverty, illiteracy, lack of access, and social norms that prevent them from getting screened or treated. Moreover, many women are not aware of the HPV vaccine, which can protect them from the infection that causes cervical cancer.
How can we raise awareness and prevent cervical cancer?
Cervical cancer is a preventable and curable disease, but it requires collective action and commitment from all stakeholders, such as governments, health authorities, civil society, media, and individuals. Some of the steps that can be taken to raise awareness and prevent cervical cancer are:
- Educate and empower women and girls about their reproductive health and rights, and encourage them to seek regular screening and treatment for cervical cancer.
- Provide affordable and accessible screening and treatment services for cervical cancer, especially in rural and remote areas, and ensure quality and safety standards.
- Implement and scale up the HPV vaccination program for girls and boys, and ensure adequate supply and coverage.
- Engage and mobilize communities, religious leaders, celebrities, and influencers to spread awareness and break the stigma and myths around cervical cancer and HPV.
- Advocate and lobby for increased funding and policy support for cervical cancer prevention and control, and integrate it with other health programs and initiatives.
- Monitor and evaluate the progress and impact of cervical cancer prevention and control efforts, and share best practices and lessons learned.
Cervical cancer is a serious public health issue that affects millions of women and their families around the world. It is also a personal tragedy that has claimed the lives of two talented and beloved actresses, Dolly Sohi and Amandeep Sohi, who were sisters.
Their deaths have highlighted the need for more awareness and action to prevent and fight cervical cancer. We hope that their legacy will inspire and motivate others to join the cause and save lives. We also hope that their family and fans will find peace and comfort in this difficult time. Rest in peace, Dolly and Amandeep. You will always be remembered.
