Aasif Khan clarifies that he did not suffer a heart attack

During a conversation with The Times Of India, Aasif shared that he was diagnosed with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), adding that he is feeling much better now and is on the path to recovery. Aasif told the portal, "So first of all, I want to clarify—it was not a heart attack. It was gastroesophageal reflux disease. The symptoms felt like a heart attack, but I’m totally fit."

He further mentioned that doctors have advised him to make a few lifestyle changes, including dietary adjustments and regular exercise.“I’ve been told to stop eating dal baati, limit my non-veg, and work out more. I don’t think it should impact my work. Something or the other happens in everyone’s life. People move on," he added
