Bengaluru: Did working out too much result in Kannada filmstar Puneeth Rajkumar’s death due to cardiac arrest?
If a widely-circulating WhatsApp message is to be believed, a number of celebrities, including Puneeth, have died because of doing “too much to be fit”.
The message, in the name of eminent cardiologist Dr Devi Shetty, states: “In the last few years, I have lost at least 8 to 9 people known to me personally, and a few celebrities too, who were in their 40s who died because of doing too much to be fit. Unfortunately they only looked fit, six packs and all. Today Puneeth Rajkumar gets added to this list.”
However, Dr Shetty, who is the Chairman and Executive Director of Narayana Health, told The Indian Express that it is a fake message and expressed his displeasure at his name being used to misguide the public.
The message made some sense and wasn’t complete bunkum as it went on to state: “In anything in life, moderation is the mantra. Any extreme of zero or 100 is not correct.”
But it was not from the respected cardiologist, and not specific to Puneeth’s case as well. Someone pulled a fast one, taking up an advisory role using Dr Shetty’s name.
