'GOD GAVE ME ONE MORE OPPORTUNITY'

‘You suddenly realise that in this entire big scheme of things, you’re just one speck.’

- 

Shreyas Talpade is on the road to recovery after experiencing a major health scare in December.

As he resumes his professional commitments, the actor says he is overwhelmed with the love and blessings coming his way.

“The love, adulation, blessings and prayers that I have received in these last four or five months, since the time it happened, is phenomenal. I don’t think I’ll be able to repay that debt in this lifetime and the next,” How are you feeling now?

I am better now. Just taking one day at a time. I am happy that I’m back on sets, where I belong.

The support from the industry, friends, family and childhood friends has been truly overwhelming. The love, adulation, blessings and prayers that I have received in these last four or five months, since the time it happened, is phenomenal.

I don’t think I’ll be able to repay that debt in this lifetime and the next.

Is there anything in your life that you see differently now?

Your priorities change. You suddenly realise that in this entire big scheme of things, you’re just one speck.

You are doing your best to make a difference and make your mark and create some valuable things around you. But at the end of the day, what really matters is your family and your health.

It just takes one split second to change things.

We should not take our family or our bodies for granted to the extent where it just pushes you in a corner and you have no choice.

How’s your work helping you in your healing process? Are you back on the Welcome 3 sets?

My doctors suggested that I should start working. They said, the more you are in a happy state of mind, the better the recovery will be.
