Actress Shakeela Undergoes Surgery Due to Excessive Phone Use

Senior actress Shakeela has revealed details about a serious health problem she reportedly developed due to excessive smartphone use. She said spending hours lying in an improper position while watching reels and playing games on her phone had become a regular habit.

Shakeela said the major surgery cost around ₹3 lakh and left her struggling with even basic activities. She revealed that she currently needs assistance to get out of bed and eat. Sharing her experience as a warning, she urged people to reduce their screen time and avoid excessive smartphone use. She also advised parents to ensure that children do not become overly dependent on smartphones and other gadgets.
