Sunil was admitted to Asian Heart Institute in Mumbai in February where he underwent four bypass surgeries. He was diagnosed with a ‘very minor heart episode (NSTEMI) as heart enzyme (troponin T) level was elevated’ and also tested positive for Covid-19.
Talking about the need to be grateful for being alive, Sunil told ETimes that in the industry, it is normal get consumed by the requirements of good looks while ignoring the basics of life. Admitting that even he "forgot the truth, having been caught up in the routine of work commitments and was not grateful enough. "But I have realised now that gratitude is important. If you can drink water when you want, you are lucky, if you can sit up on your bed by yourself, you are lucky, if you can walk to the bathroom without anyone’s help, you are lucky."
He further said, "When you are lying in the ICU, and having to take the help of another person for these small little things that you take for granted every day, that is when you realise how lucky you have been all this while. Once that realisation strikes, everything else — fame, career, money — feels like a bonus! After this experience, I would like to tell everyone to take care of our health, be grateful for what we have and live with love. .. that’s about it.”
