After emerging as the winner of Bigg Boss OTT 3 last year, actress Sana Makbul experienced a positive shift in her life. However, her struggles didn’t end there. Recently, she revealed that she has been battling a liver ailment along with an immunity-related disorder, similar to what actress Samantha Ruth Prabhu has been dealing with. During her appearance on Bharti Singh’s podcast, Sana candidly discussed her health issues, disclosing that she has been undergoing treatment and taking medication for her condition since 2020.
Sana revealed, “I have turned vegan recently for health reasons. A lot of people don’t know that I am an autoimmune hepatitis patient. Autoimmune is a condition and I have a liver disease. It was diagnosed in 2020. There are no specific symptoms of my condition. In this, my body's own cells attack the organ. In my case, it is sometimes Lupus, which can affect the kidneys or lead to arthritis. Samantha Ruth Prabhu has myositis, which primarily affects the muscles. For me, it impacts my liver."
Recognized for her strong and fearless persona on the reality show, Sana opened up about how she manages her health. She shared, "I rely on steroids, immunosuppressants, and other medications. It’s a lifestyle disorder, but when combined with an autoimmune condition, liver issues become quite complicated. My health keeps fluctuating, and I’m unsure if this can ever be fully cured."
Bharti and Harsh also touched upon how social media frequently spreads misinformation about treatments and remedies, which can be misleading. Bharti highlighted how conflicting opinions can create confusion, while Sana added, “Social media messes with your mind. I continue to have my bad days.”
Following her Bigg Boss OTT 3 victory, Sana Makbul has been featured in multiple music videos. One of her notable projects included a collaboration with Bigg Boss 18 winner Karanveer Mehra. Most recently, she appeared in a music video titled Bhamai alongside her best friend, Naezy.
