Mumbai: Kanwar Dhillon, the charming TV heartthrob, has been navigating a challenging recovery after undergoing dental surgery. he said, "It's been tough, but I'm getting there," he shared, revealing that he returned to set just four days post-surgery, despite experiencing some swelling. However, pushing himself too hard took a toll, and he had to take a day off to rest and recover from the increased swelling, which was complicated by still having stitches. Thankfully, his team has been supportive, granting him the necessary time to heal.
00:00Yeah, it was challenging. Today is the fifth day, but I had taken up the challenge of coming to the set the day before yesterday with a little swelling and I had actually exerted a little, so I had a lot of swelling inside because I still have stitches.
00:19So yesterday I took a leave and my team has been kind enough. I took a four-day leave and still have stitches, but the swelling was gone, so I thought let's come and shoot.
00:31It affected the schedule, the performance. So when I came the day before yesterday, of course, we couldn't do the closes and I was able to make the sound in a limitation because there was a lot of swelling and there were stitches, so there was a lot of tightness.
00:47But not at all now, I am giving my 100 percent. The schedule has been affected, everyone has taken a four-day leave, but we are back in form.
01:01Oh, the production team supported me throughout. Luckily, we had a good bank, so we were able to afford a leave and the production house was very cooperative and very sweet.
01:12For me, it's a matter of home. Rahul sir's team and Rolling Tales is like home. So everyone was pretty supportive. Everyone said, do it, we will manage because everyone knew that I was shooting in pain since last week in December.
01:26So I did a little co-operation till New Year and then the team did it.
01:31No, no, nothing like that. No formalities. I am a rough and tough person. Even if I was at 50 percent, if I didn't have a face, if it was someone else's surgery, I would still have come.
01:47But since the visual medium and the face was swollen, I didn't come for three days. Otherwise, if I was doing some other surgery, I was coming on set the next day.
