Rajesh Sharma has been admitted to a private hospital in Kolkata after reportedly suffering a suspected insect or spider bite while shooting for Prabhas upcoming film at RFC.
The bite initially seemed very much minor so he did not seek any medical help. However a few hours later he developed severe pain in his right leg and a very high fever.
Despite his worsening condition he traveled to Kolkata where he was admitted to the hospital. Doctors said the infection spread much quickly from his toes to his knee, causing large blisters.
He is now under very much close medical observation and doctors are monitoring him for possible complications.
His family has thanked every fan, friends and well wishers for their prayers and support during this difficult time.
