Adnan Sani talks about the reason behind his physical transformation, says 'the doctor said your parents will find you dead'

Adnan Sani weight loss journey

Adnan Sami was secretly battling a serious health issue that could have ended his life at the height of his musical career. The well-known singer, who weighed 230 kg, was in danger, but he didn't realise how serious his condition was until he had to face reality after a very emotional conversation with his father.

Adnan talked openly about his previous health issues and the moment that caused him to undergo a significant change in an interview with India TV.

Despite the toll his weight was taking on his health and daily life, Adnan admitted he was initially indifferent. Recalling a crucial visit to the doctor, he shared, “Doctors told me that my results are on the borderline. They said, ‘If you continue this lifestyle, I will not be surprised that your parents will find you dead in a hotel room six months from now.’ It was a shock for me but I was angry because he said this in front of my father. I told my father to ignore the doctor as they tend to be melodramatic."

Instead of taking the warning seriously, Adnan initially responded with denial and defiance. “After visiting the doctor, I went straight to a bakery and ate half of their goods. My father was looking at me with anger and he asked, ‘Aren’t you scared of God?’ He rebuked me for ignoring what the doctor said and I told him, ‘Doctors keep saying things.’"

The real wake-up call came later that night. His father, in a moment of raw emotion, pleaded with him, saying, “My father told me, ‘I am asking only for one thing from you, Please don’t have me bury my own child. You have to bury me and not the other way around.’ I saw tears in his eyes and I promised him to lose weight. Then I reduced 120 kg."

Adnan revealed how his weight impacted basic functioning, saying, “For many years, I couldn’t sleep while lying down… I suffered from Lymphedema." Despite speculation, he dismissed rumours of weight-loss surgery. “My nutritionist gave me a high-protein diet… I reduced 20 kgs in the first month."

Renowned for classic tunes like Kabhi To Nazar Milao, Lift Karade, and Tera Chehra, Adnan Sami never stops inspiring with his music and fortitude.
