Veteran actor Paresh Rawal shared how drinking his own urine helped him recover from a knee injury during the shooting of Ghatak.
The injury occurred while shooting a scene in a fish market, where his new slippers caused him to slip.
He admitted that his injury was due to his own mistake during the shot, even though his co-actor, Rakesh Pandey, had been careful during rehearsals.
After the injury, Paresh was taken to Nanavati Hospital by Tinnu Anand and Danny Denzongpa.
He feared for his career but was comforted by a surprising piece of advice from Veeru Devgan.
Devgan suggested that Paresh drink his first morning urine every day for faster recovery, while avoiding alcohol, mutton, and tobacco.
Following this advice, Paresh drank his urine for 15 days and healed in just a month and a half. Doctors were amazed by the rapid recovery, which would typically take over two months.
