On Friday, Vishal shared photos and videos from a hospital bed, his arm visibly injured, and wrote, “Accidents have a way of shaking you up. While shooting, I accidentally cut my nerves with glass, something I never imagined could happen while doing the one thing I love the most: acting. Two operations later, I’m here, paused, forced to put everything on hold. For someone chasing his dream physique (nazar is real), his dream career, this feels like one of the darkest days.”
Vishal recalled how close the incident came to turning into a tragedy, “The doctor told me something that still gives me chills – my artery that goes straight to the heart was saved by just a few minor inches. If not, half my body could’ve been paralysed. He said it was nothing but a blessing that saved me. And I can only think of the blessings I receive every day from my family, my friends, and of course all of you.”
