Remo D’Souza Recalls Getting Heart Attack

He was at the gym when he first noticed something was wrong. “I started feeling uneasy, and after stretching, there was pain that just wasn’t going away. I felt like vomiting and that’s when my wife, Lizelle, suggested we go to the hospital,” he revealed. Upon arriving at the hospital, doctors informed him that he had a “100 percent blockage,” marking the incident as a major heart attack.

Although the news devastated his wife, Remo admitted he found it hard to believe, given his commitment to fitness. The doctors later explained that his physical condition likely saved his life. “The doctor said it is because I am fit that I could walk and come; anyone else wouldn’t have made it to the hospital,” Remo recalled.

There’s a reason why he is so loved. He has a golden heart,” Remo shared, expressing his gratitude for the actor, whom he directed in Race 3.

Looking back, Remo admitted how surreal the entire experience was. “It was scary. May the lord not show even my enemy what I felt,” he said. He considers himself lucky to have survived the ordeal and appreciates the strength and support of his wife, Lizelle, during this trying time.
