The doctors had advised me to take rest till then. I undertook my professional and political responsibilities superseding the advise given, to enable me to reach out to my brothers and sisters," he had said in the Twitter post. The Vishwaroopam 2 actor had a few surgeries already in the past due to an accident in 2016 and also had 16 fractures in his body.
