Actor Rajesh Sharma, who was hospitalised after falling critically ill in July, has now broken his silence on his hospitalisation. Back in July, the actor's close friend Sudipa Chatterjee shared on Instagram that he was hospitalised following an insect bite on Prabhas's film set at Ramoji Film City, Hyderabad. The actor has now dismissed the reports, adding that he had had a skin problem for a long time.

He told NDTV that he had a skin condition in his right leg for a long, and the situation worsened as his diabetes was high. He stated that he didn't realise the gravity of the situation initially. "My treatment is over. Recovery is going on. Hopefully, I will start working in a week," Rajesh Sharma said.
