Sushmita Sen Recalls ‘Laughing’ In The OT During Angioplasty: ‘Had A Fun Doctor And A Terrific…’

Sushmita Sen is currently basking on the success of her recently released web series, Aarya 3. During the show’s shoot, the actress suffered a heart attack. In a recent interview, the actress opened up about the same and also spoke at length about her autoimmune disorder.

In an interview with Curly Tales, Sushmita revealed that she was suffering from an autoimmune disease. “I went through this entire phase of my life where I went through an autoimmune condition. One of the biggest problems with that is brain fog. I ask you, ‘What is your name?’ and then, two seconds later, I ask you again, ‘What is your name?’ I’m sorry. As a public figure, that was something that bothered me a lot because I was suddenly not in my power to be aware and mindful.”

Speaking about her heart attack, the actress opened up about how she has been aware of her health since her parents were heart patients too. She also stated that they had a good and sound report just six months before suffering from a heart attack. She then went on to reveal that she was laughing in the operation theatre during her angioplasty. “But if you ask me about my lifestyle, I celebrate life. I have always been a happy person, so that really helped through this crisis because I was laughing even on the OT table. We were joking—me and my doctor. I had a really fun doctor, so we were just looking at the angioplasty happening, and we really had a terrific time.”

Sushmita Sen has carved her niche as an accomplished actress. She is celebrated for her remarkable talent and off-beat roles. The former Miss Universe winner returned to the screens with the thriller series Aarya in June 2020 and marked a significant milestone, impressing both audiences and critics with her compelling and power-packed performance.

Sushmita Sen’s Aarya inaugural season garnered recognition with a nomination for the Best Drama Series at the International Emmy Awards, solidifying its critical acclaim.

Created and co-directed by filmmaker Ram Madhvani and co-produced by Amita Madhvani, Ram Madhvani Films, and Endemol Shine India, Aarya boasts an ensemble cast, featuring Sushmita Sen, Ila Arun, Sikandar Kher, Indraneil Sengupta, and Vikas Kumar, among others.
