Rajat Dalal, the famous personality from The 50, recently posted a few pictures on his Instagram with the caption, "Gir girke hi insaan uthna seekhta hai!" In the images, supporters could observe Rajat resting on a hospital bed. After the photos were shared, fans inundated the comments, enquiring about what had occurred to him.

In reply, Rajat subsequently shared his medical report and a video to explain the situation.

He provided the MRI report for his right elbow, stating, "Complete thickness tear of the tendinous part of lateral fibres of the triceps tendon with about 3 cm retraction of the torn fibres."

In the video shot from the hospital, Rajat described that he had hurt himself while performing the initial task of The 50. In spite of the tendon tear, he kept on performing in the show.

Subsequently, in a different event that was aired yesterday, he incurred another injury. Nonetheless, he did not leave the programme, finished all his assignments, and had surgery after the programme concluded.

The influencer affirmed that his surgery happened today and was a success.

He said, "Sab puch rahe hain ki kya hua hai. The 50 ke pehle din ke shoot par mere ko tendon tear ho gaya tha; wo khinchav 2.8 cm ka tha. Jab baad mein ek task kiya, usme badhkar 3 cm ho gaya. Show ki commitment thi, aur mujhe bhi chodne ka man nahi tha...so pehle show khatam kiya, aur ab finally mujhe jis doctor se surgery karwani thi, wahan se date mili."

(Everyone has been asking what happened. I had a tendon tear on the first day of the shoot, which was 2.8 cm. Then when I performed a task, it increased to 3cm. I had a commitment towards the show, and I too did not feel like leaving it midway. So I finished the shoot, and then as I got the date from the doctor of the surgery, I went for it.)

Updating on his health, he remarked, "Today the surgery took place, and it went well."

A tendon tear is a condition in which the tendon, the tough fibrous tissue that links muscle to bone, is either partially or fully torn, hindering movement and resulting in pain. In medical language, it is frequently referred to as a "full-thickness" or "partial-thickness tear" of the tendon fibres, based on whether all layers of the tendon are impacted.
