Rajesh Sharma hospitalised after suspected insect bite on Prabhas’ film set, condition under close observation

  • Actor Rajesh Sharma is hospitalized in Dhakuria, West Bengal, following a suspected poisonous insect bite sustained during filming at Ramoji Film City in Hyderabad.
  • Actress Sudipa Chatterjee revealed Sharma felt the bite while chatting with technicians in a vegetated area after 'pack up,' subsequently traveling to Kolkata despite developing a high fever.
  • The infection has spread from his toes to his knee with large blisters, prompting Dr. Avijit Bhattacharya to monitor for complications including potential blood clots.
  • Sudipa and Agnidev Chatterjee expressed gratitude for support from the media, the Bengal Motion Pictures Artists' Forum, and "above all, Shri Prosenjit Chatterjee," who provided constant guidance.
  • Sharma remains under close observation and is not yet out of danger, with an official medical update expected tomorrow after the hospital releases a medical statement.
