Influencer and Bigg Boss OTT 3 contestant Vishal Pandey recently opened up about a harrowing on-set accident that left him with severe nerve injuries and required two surgeries. He revealed how the fatal incident could have left him paralysed, but he was fortunate to be saved. Vishal also reflected on the blessings he has received and assured fans that he will bounce back stronger.

Vishal Pandey shares his ordeal


On Thursday, Vishal took to his Instagram and wrote, "Accidents have a way of shaking you up. While shooting, I accidentally cut my nerves with glass, something I never imagined could happen while doing the one thing I love the most: acting. Two operations later, I’m here, paused, forced to put everything on hold. For someone chasing his dream physique (nazar is real), his dream career, this feels like one of the darkest days."



Vishal recalled how close the incident came to turning into a tragedy, “The doctor told me something that still gives me chills – my artery that goes straight to the heart was saved by just a few minor inches. If not, half my body could’ve been paralysed. He said it was nothing but a blessing that saved me. And I can only think of the blessings I receive every day from my family, my friends, and of course all of you.”

Despite the ordeal, Vishal signed off on a hopeful note, “And yet… you’ll still see me smiling in these pictures. Why? Because once I’m back to full strength, nothing and no one will be able to stop me. Even in this condition, I won’t pause. This little setback won’t define me, it’ll fuel me. Like they say, the sun always rises again. And so will I.”
