We take our health for granted: Shreyas Talpade

In an interview with Bollywood Bubble, Shreyas was asked if actors tend to neglect their health for fulfilling work commitments or good looks. To this, the actor said that not because of look, but due to work commitments actors take their health for granted. He added that health has become a matter of concern post-COVID-19 pandemic. "I never imagined such an instance would happen because I thought I was taking care of myself and my health. But I think it is also a very post covid phenomenon," he continued.

He added that post-COVID a lot has changed within our body and he just wishes for everyone to take good care of health and do regular check-ups.

Before a heart attack, Shreyas used to take his family for granted due to work. However, now he keeps his family and health on priority. "One thing that changed, I was taking my family for granted due to work. Now family and my health come first and then my work," he concluded.
