Renowned filmmaker Vikram Bhatt has shared a harrowing account of a health scare he experienced while in jail. The incident occurred in January when he was incarcerated in Udaipur Central Jail. Bhatt suffered from a severe fever and uncontrollable shivering but was not taken to a hospital. In a social media post, he revealed that he was left to fend for himself, with no medical attention.
Despite his condition, Bhatt managed to muster the strength to pray and seek divine intervention. He wrote, 'I said, 'If you exist... if my prayers to you have ever meant anything... show me a miracle. I don't want to die here. My children need me. My wife needs me. My 90-year-old father needs me''.
After 15 days of praying, Bhatt's fever began to reduce, and the pain slowly eased. He was eventually taken to a hospital, where he was treated for his illness. Bhatt's account of his ordeal has sparked widespread concern about the lack of medical facilities in Indian prisons.
