Tamil actor Vishnu Vishal is gearing up for the release of his film Gatta Kusthi 2, which also stars Aishwarya Lekshmi in the lead role. On Thursday, Vishnu took to social media to share a health update with his fans, revealing that for the past three to four years, he has been suffering from an autoimmune condition.
In his note, Vishnu thanked his fans for their concern and wrote, "Hey everyone, first of all, thank you for all the love and concern you've shown through your comments and messages. It truly means a lot, and I wanted to share this with you personally."
The actor further wrote, "Many of you noticed that my face looks tired lately. The reason is that I've been dealing with an autoimmune condition for the last 3-4 years, and the prescribed medication I'm taking on and off has some visible side effects, including the bloating you've been noticing. This treatment is medically necessary, and my health has to come first (sic)."
