Salman Khan suffering from serious illness, fans in shock

Bollywood superstar Salman Khan has left fans shocked and concerned after publicly disclosing that he is suffering from several serious medical conditions, including trigeminal neuralgia, a brain aneurysm, and an arteriovenous (AV) malformation.

The revelation came during his appearance on The Great Indian Couple Show, where Khan was invited as a guest. Hosted by comedian Kapil Sharma, the show featured candid conversations that took an unexpected turn when Khan spoke about his health struggles.

Responding to a light-hearted question about his longstanding bachelor status, Khan, 58, replied in a somber yet spontaneous tone, “We are breaking bones every day, ribs are broken, we are working with trigeminal neuralgia, we have an aneurysm in the brain, we are working despite this, we also have AV malformation, we are still walking.”

The disclosure stunned both Sharma and the audience, many of whom had been reassured by the actor’s visibly fit appearance on the show. In recent months, speculation around Khan’s health had been circulating on social media, but the actor had made no public comment until now.

Khan’s revelation has triggered a wave of concern among fans and fellow celebrities, with many taking to social media to commend his resilience and unwavering commitment to his work.

Understanding the illnesses

Trigeminal neuralgia is a chronic pain condition affecting the trigeminal nerve in the face, often described as producing excruciating, electric shock-like facial pain. It is widely regarded as one of the most painful medical conditions.

A brain aneurysm refers to a weakened area in the wall of a blood vessel in the brain that causes it to bulge or balloon. If ruptured, it can lead to a hemorrhagic stroke, often resulting in permanent neurological damage or death.

AV malformation (arteriovenous malformation) is a rare and potentially fatal condition where blood vessels in the brain or spinal cord form abnormally, disrupting the normal flow of blood. In some cases, it goes unnoticed until complications such as bleeding or seizures occur.

Despite the gravity of his health concerns, Salman Khan continues to remain active in the entertainment industry. His appearance on the show, where he was seen engaging with fans and maintaining his usual charisma, further cemented his image as a resilient performer.

Fans across India and abroad have expressed deep admiration for Khan’s courage and professionalism. Many have called his openness an act of bravery, particularly in an industry where personal vulnerabilities are often kept under wraps.

The actor has not confirmed whether he is undergoing any ongoing treatment for these conditions or how they may affect his upcoming projects.

Salman Khan, known for his roles in blockbuster films such as Bajrangi Bhaijaan, Sultan, and Dabangg, has enjoyed an enduring popularity over the decades. He also hosts the popular reality TV show Bigg Boss and remains one of Bollywood’s most bankable stars.
