Salman Khan's brother-in-law and actor Aayush Sharma has opened up about his recent health struggles, involving two back surgeries. He mentioned that he had to undergo the surgeries after ignoring a long-standing injury sustained while performing a stunt sequence for the film 'Ruslaan'.In an Instagram post, Sharma shared photos and videos from his recovery journey and admitted ignoring the pain was his biggest mistake.advertisementAayush wrote, "Life has its way of slowing you down to make sure you listen. For the last couple of years, I had been experiencing consistent pain in my back. It started while pulling off a stunt during the action scene in 'Ruslaan' - nothing too dramatic, so I did what most of us tend to do, ignored it, masked it, and kept going (sic)."
However, the pain worsened during the shoot of his current film, leading to serious restrictions in his movement. "It finally caught up with me while shooting for my current movie, and things took a turn. Movements that once felt like second nature, dancing, stunts, even the simplest stretches, became restricted. What I thought was temporary turned out to be far more serious (sic)," he added.Watch the video here: advertisementReflecting on the experience, he continued, 'The biggest mistake? Taking the pain lightly and hoping it would heal on its own. But now here we are. After two surgeries, I'm officially on the road to recovery. The journey has just begun, and I'm filled with nothing but gratitude, hope, and a burning desire to get back to doing what I love the most - being in front of the camera (sic)."Aayush also shared an important message about health, saying, "This phase has taught me that good health isn't just about a six-pack - it's about what's happening inside. Don't ignore the whispers your body sends you. Act early. Heal properly (sic)."Here's a picture Aayush shared:

I need my Wolverine back.' I'm coming back stronger. For you. For me. For all of it (sic)."Aayush was last seen in 'Ruslaan', directed by Karan Butani and co-starring Sushrii Shreya Mishraa, Jagapathi Babu, and Vidya Malvade.
