Sanjay Shah, 56, the CEO of Vistex, a well-known Illinois-based technology company, died tragically while celebrating the company’s 25th anniversary.

The incident occurred at Ramoji Film City in Hyderabad, India, during an elaborate stage performance that took a terrifying turn.

Shah, along with the company’s president, Raju Datla, performed a daring stage act featuring an “iron cage contraption.”

Surprisingly, a video shared on social media captures the terrifying moment when the cable supporting the cage snapped, resulting in a 15-foot fall for both executives.

In the aftermath, Shah and Datla were rushed to a nearby hospital. Regrettably, Sanjay Shah was declared dead, while Raju Datla is still fighting for his life, according to the Times of India.

The unfortunate incident occurred while the duo was being lowered from the cage onto the stage below, signaling the start of planned festivities.

A Vistex official confirmed this, shedding light on the tragic turn of events that occurred during what was supposed to be a momentous occasion for the company.

Vistex, a global company with 20 offices and a workforce of over 2,000 people, planned a two-day celebration to commemorate its 25th anniversary.

The company, founded by Sanjay Shah in 1999, is now facing a somber reality as it deals with the loss of its visionary leader and the critical condition of its president.

The shocking video and the untimely death of Sanjay Shah cast a pall over the milestone celebration, leaving the tech industry in mourning and raising concerns about safety protocols at such large events.

As investigations continue, the incident serves as a sobering reminder of the unexpected risks that can accompany even the most meticulously planned events.
