Internet reacts to Paresh Rawal's 'drank my own urine to combat leg injury' statement; one netizen writes, "Waste management by him"

Paresh Rawal trolled for saying he drank his own urine

Many people were shocked when veteran actor Paresh Rawal recently disclosed an odd treatment he used to speed up his recuperation from an injury: drinking his own urine. Social media is currently experiencing a surge of disbelief and trolling in response to his shocking admission.

After suffering a leg injury, Paresh Rawal recalled being admitted to Nanavati Max Super Speciality Hospital in Mumbai. Veeru Devgan, the renowned action director and father of Bollywood actor Ajay Devgn, paid him a visit while he was in the hospital and gave him some rather unusual advice.

While speaking to Lallantop, Paresh recounted, “Veeru Devgan had come to visit when I was in Nanavati (hospital). When he got to know I was there, he came up to me and asked what happened to me? I told him about my leg injury.... He told me to drink my own urine first thing in the morning. He shared that all fighters do this, saying that ‘You will never face any problem, just drink urine first thing in the morning’. He told me not to consume alcohol, which I had stopped, mutton or tobacco. He told me to eat regular food and urine in the morning.”

Taking Veeru Devgan’s words seriously, Paresh decided to follow the advice. He added, “I had decided if I had to drink my own urine I’ll not have it at one go, I’ll sip it like beer. Because I want to do it properly. I did this for 15 days. 15 days later when the doctor took my X-ray, he was shocked. The doctor asked me, ‘How did this cementing happen?’ He could see a white line forming. I was supposed to be discharged in 2-2.5 months, but I was discharged in 1.5 months. It was like magic."

Since his revelation, social media has been abuzz with reactions ranging from amusement to disgust. One user quipped, "Waste management by Paresh Rawal," while another commented, "Ewww! Veeru Devgan probably just played a prank & Paresh Rawal really started drinking his own urine.” Another remarked, “How can anyone do this nonsense?”

Meanwhile, a fan jokingly wrote, “Paresh Rawal while drinking his own urine: 'Dawai hai re!!!’”, and another added, “That Paresh Rawal video goes on the list of things I really never needed to see or hear.”

On the professional front, Paresh Rawal will next be seen in Priyadarshan's horror-comedy Bhooth Bangla, which also stars Tabu and Akshay Kumar. In addition, he has Hera Pheri 3 planned, in which he will work with Suniel Shetty and Akshay Kumar again.
