      Actor Sushmita Sen survived a massive heart attack earlier this year while shooting for the third season of her Disney Plus Hotstar show ‘Aarya’ in Jaipur.

      During a recent event, Sushmita revealed that she had a heart attack just 6 months after getting a proper health check-up done. Her test reports had shown no issues and everything happened unexpectedly.

      Sushmita’s parents, Shubeer Sen and Shubhra Sen, have heart conditions due to which the actor used to get her heart check-up done twice a year.

      ‘It happened so suddenly and so unexpectedly given that both my parents have heart conditions. I used to have two check ups in a year because I was aware that genetically I have that. My last check up was 6 month before the heart attack and it was shocking. Everything was okay, the stress test was okay, the echo was okay. It was a very sudden occurrence,’ she said during a session at the ongoing Hindustan Times Leadership Summit 2023.

      Sushmita Sen also shared that all the action sequences of the show were shot after she recovered from the heart attack.

      ‘It was cathartic in a sense because all of the action that you see in the trailer was shot one month after my heart attack. So when Aarya get shot, falls to the ground and she is gasping for air, in a crazy way it was like reel and real life, finally coming to a beautiful cathartic unison feeling. As dark as that sounds, I think it was a whole new beginning for me. Both personally and for Aarya on screen,’ Sushmita said.

      Sushmita Sen also shared the lesson the health scare taught her.

      ‘My takeaway is this, whatever be the reason, we all have a deadline. But the fact that day on the 24th of February wasn’t my day, means that there is a lot to be done still. What a driving force that is. To know that your life has so much purpose left, so much to fulfil. It was a massive heart attack and still there was no damage by God’s grace. I am really, very lucky,’ she said.

      Sushmita Sen’s ‘Aarya’ season 3 releases on November 3.
