In this day and age of social media, when news spreads like wildfire, actor Shreyas Talpade found himself at the center of a pretty disturbing rumor recently. The false news spread rapidly, causing concern among his loved ones and followers. Shreyas, known for his versatile roles, including his powerful portrayal of Atal Bihari Vajpayee in Emergency and his upcoming role in Chandu Champion, was quick to set the record straight.
Taking to Instagram late Monday night, the Om Shanti Om star reassured everyone that he is very much alive, happy, and healthy. Speaking his heart out, he strongly condemned spreading such baseless rumors and said in his writing how sad it was that people can stoop so low to be insensitive. “I want to assure everyone that I am ALIVE, HAPPY, and HEALTHY.” he wrote, that rumors like this affect the people who care for him.
He also pointed out that the rumor affected him on a personal level since his daughter was badly disturbed by hearing this false piece of news. He recounts how the misinformation, other than stressing him, even led to some seriously embarrassing dialogues with his friends and teachers about the status of his health. Shreyas has called on people to stop the spread of such rumors and requested more responsibility and sensitivity on social media.
The recent health scare of Shreyas Talpade that is put into question was actually when the actor suffered a heart attack and was hospitalized in December 2023. In a truly miraculous statement post his return to regular life, he resumed that it was nothing short of a miracle that he had been saved. Now, resuming his career, he gears up for the release of his upcoming film “Welcome to the Jungle,” a comic-caper multi-starrer, with Akshay Kumar this December 2024.
As Shreyas continues to entertain, enlighten, and inspire people, the best part is that all the focus would be on his work, minus the type of baseless rumors and speculations around his well-being.
