Speaking to The Lallantop, Paresh Rawal revealed that Veeru Devgan him to drink my own urine for health benefits.
Paresh Rawal grabbed attention after his fallout with Akshay Kumar, leading to his exit from Hera Pheri 3. Fans were disappointed with the news. However, with efforts, both actors reconciled, and Paresh Rawal was back in the movie. Well, he is back in the headlines. He has recently reacted to the controversy surrounding his remark about drinking his own urine. Facing backlash online, the actor hit back at trolls with a sarcastic comment.
In conversation with Bollywood Hungama, Paresh Rawal was asked to comment on the controversy that emerged after his comments on drinking urine. Hitting back at trolls, he said, 'I haven't offered them (urine), right? Or are they having a problem because I didn't offer them? Are they feeling, 'Yaar yeh akele pee gaye aur humko nahin diya?'!"
'It's an incident of my life which took place 40 years ago. Woh maine bol diya. Usme kya ho gaya? People enjoy making a mountain out of a molehill. Karne do unko mazaa," he added. When asked if those who have benefited from consuming urine reached out to him after seeing his interview, Paresh Rawal revealed, 'A lot of people have, but I don't want to get into it."
In April, Paresh Rawal revealed that he injured his leg while shooting for a scene with Rakesh Pandey, post which Tinnu Anand and Danny Denzongpa rushed him to Nanavati Hospital in Mumbai. Paresh Rawal said that he was 'petrified' and thought that his career had ended. He then revealed that late action director Veeru Devgan visited him in the hospital and suggested him to consume his own urine to help him heal faster.
While speaking with The Lallantop, Paresh Rawal said, 'Veeru Devgan had come to visit when I was in Nanavati (hospital). When he got to know I was there, he came up to me and asked what happened to me? I told him about my leg injury." He then revealed what Veeru Devgan advised him. 'He told me to drink my own urine first thing in the morning. All fighters do this. You will never face any problem, just drink urine first thing in the morning. He told me not to consume alcohol, which I had stopped, mutton or tobacco. He told me to eat regular food and urine in the morning."
'I will sip it like a beer because if I have to follow through, I will do so properly. I did for 15 days and when the X-ray reports came in, the doctor was surprised," said Paresh Rawal. The doctor saw a white lining on the X-ray, indicating that it is healed. He shared that while it would have normally taken about 2 to 2.5 months for the injury to heal, he was healed in a month and a half!
On the professional front, Paresh Rawal will next be seen in Priyadarshan's upcoming horror comedy Bhooth Bangla, which also stars Akshay Kumar and Tabu. He also has Hera Pheri 3 in the pipeline, co-starring Akshay Kumar and Suniel Shetty.

When Dhanush revealed Aanand L Rai put in his own money to hire him for Raanjhanaa: ‘They didn't have the right kind of budget for me'
Dhanush, a force to reckon with in the Tamil film industry, made a memorable Bollywood debut with Aanand L Rai's 2013 romantic drama Raanjhanaa. He played Kundan, a Varanasi boy who goes from being an unrequited lover to a key political voice in New Delhi. The actor revealed last month on the film's 12th anniversary that he almost didn't do the film because of budgetary constraints. 'At that time, they didn't have the right kind of budget for hiring me as the lead actor. But this man's (Aanand L Rai) passion was so strong that he just wanted me to play Kundan. He could have offered any actor this part and they would have happily come on board. After all, it's such a great part,' said Dhanush at a special fan screening of Raanjhanaa. 'But he went against all odds. I don't know I am supposed to say this and I don't care! He invested his own money as well. He went all out (to cast me). He saw Kundan in me and he stayed true to his vision,' added Dhanush. The actor confessed that he didn't feel as nervous on his debut Tamil film as he did on his first Hindi film, for the same reason. 'I was not scared during my first film. When I was written off, I was not scared. That's how I am. But for the first time, I was scared. I felt responsible. So, I was praying so hard to God that 'Somehow save this man,'' said Dhanush, adding, 'They made a cult classic. It is not the story of Kundan and Zoya. It is the story of two mad men who believed in this.' Also Read: Eros denies Aanand L Rai's stand on re-release of Raanjhanaa, says using AI to present 'a respectful creative reinterpretation' of original Raanjhanaa also stars Sonam Kapoor, Abhay Deol, Swara Bhaskar, and Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub. Last year, in an interview with Bollywood Hungama, Aanand L Rai also revealed he initially planned to cast Ranbir Kapoor for Kundan's role. 'An actor who keeps himself simple and lets himself blend into the crowd, which is a difficult thing, I believe Ranbir Kapoor is like this, but he was not available at that time and as we were searching for such an actor, we found Dhanush,' said Rai, who went on to collaborate with Dhanush in the 2021 film Atrangi Re and the upcoming movie Tere Ishq Mein, which is from 'the same world as Raanjhanaa.'
