Actor Hrithik Roshan underwent a successful brain surgery on Sunday to remove a blood clot that developed from head injuries suffered during a shooting schedule.
Hrithik’s father Rakesh Roshan told that while Hrithik was shooting for his next film “Bang Bang” he was meant to do a stunt where he had to put a jet on his feet and go 30 feet high in the sky, and then dive down in the water. He fell the wrong way and banged his head a bit, which he didn’t realise. That started a pain in his head, and he started taking pain killers, thinking it will get fine in few days, because something similar also happened during “Kaho Naa… Pyaar Hai”. The pain although fallen down, but only to return a month later.
On July 5, Hrithik told his mother about his headaches and that he is feeling very much uncomfortable, and soon the family took CT scan and MRI. On July 7, and was being treated by family physician Dr R K Agarwal.
It was reported that the actor has a blood clot in his brain and is being diagnosed with chronic subdural haematoma. He was admitted to the Hinduja Hospital and already operated and out of any danger.
Jaslok Hospital’s director of neurosurgery Dr Paresh Doshi added that it was surprising the condition hit the young star: “It can be serious for the young if not treated on time”.
Before going for surgery, Hrithik had tweeted, “Minor brain surgery to remove blood clot” Should be rock n rolling by evening! U guys have a great day too! Supersonic!!”
