Shreyas Talpade recalls near-fatal heart attack: 'I was clinically dead for a couple of minutes'

Shreyas Talpade was hospitalised last month after he had a heart attack and underwent an angioplasty. In an interview with The Times of India, the actor has opened up about his health scare for the first time and revealed that he was 'clinically dead' for a few minutes on that day. Shreyas recalled that for last few months, he was feeling extremely fatigued after work and since he has a family history of heart ailments, he has been taking medications and precautions. The Golmaal actor said, “Suddenly, I felt breathless and my left hand started paining. I could barely walk to my vanity van and change my clothes. I thought it was a muscle pull since we were shooting action sequences. You don’t think of the worst-case scenario, right? I had never experienced this kind of fatigue. I got into the car and headed straight home. My wife, Deepti, saw me in that state and within 10 minutes, we were on our way to the hospital." Shreyas revealed that by the time he entered the hospsital, he had suffered a cardiac arrest. He further added how such an experience has completely changed his perspective towards life. "Don't take your health for granted. Times are so uncertain that you must give extreme importance to your health.”
