Speaking to ANI, she explained, 'We consulted some of the best doctors in the world, and they told us themselves that for cases like yours, everything is available in India. We also spoke to top doctors in India, and they themselves said that they are so well-connected globally that the best consultations in the world are accessible right here." She added, 'If you're not already aware, Tata Hospital is a major institution.
