Career

In 2009, while filming a short film titled Paboos, Khalili sustained an injury. During a scene that required her to climb a hill, she experienced severe pain in the back of her leg, which prevented her from continuing. After being taken to the hospital, it was determined that the muscle tissue in her leg had torn, resulting in internal bleeding. Doctors advised her to refrain from any physical activity for 40 days and to keep her leg immobilized to prevent further bleeding. Consequently, her leg was placed in a cast.

Death

Mahchehreh Khalili died on 7 August 2020 at the age of 43 in London due to pancreatic cancer. Her body was laid to rest on 11 August 2020 in the Muslim cemetery in Hendon, northwest London, in the presence of family and friends.
