Veteran actor Paresh Rawal recently made a shocking revelation that he drank his own urine to recover from a knee injury. He even claimed that it not only healed him, but also fast-tracked the healing process, leading to an early discharge from the hospital.
During a conversation with The Lallantop, the OMG actor recalled being admitted to Nanavati Hospital in Mumbai following an injury while shooting for Rajkumar Santoshi's Ghatak.
He said, "Veeru Devgan had come to visit when I was in Nanavati (hospital). When he got to know I was there, he came up to me and asked what happened to me? I told him about my leg injury."
"He told me to drink my own urine first thing in the morning. He shared that all fighters do this, saying that ‘You will never face any problem, just drink urine first thing in the morning’. He also told me not to consume alcohol, which I had stopped, mutton or tobacco. He told me to eat regular food and urine in the morning," the Hera Pheri actor recalled.
Paresh Rawal further said, "I will sip it like a beer because if I have to follow through, I will do so properly. I did for 15 days and when the X-ray reports came in, the doctor was surprised."
"The doctor asked me, ‘How did this cementing happen?’ He could see a white line forming. I was supposed to be discharged in 2-2.5 months, but I was discharged in 1.5 months. It was like magic", he said.
