Dear #MumbaiMirror. Let me unburden u. This is about me. Hadn't eaten for hours so had blanked out. @BeingSalmanKhan called paramedics.u00f0u009fu0099u0083u00f0u009fu0091u0087u00f0u009fu0092u00aa pic.twitter.com/osGTfZyIJY

According to a report in DNA, the actor gave his version of the entire incident. "Firstly, it was not a heart-related ailment, meaning a heart attack as the blind item in a tabloid implied. Why so coy about it? I've nothing to hide. We were all together in Salman Khan's room in New York when I had a blackout. I had not eaten anything for one-and-a-half days — big mistake — and my sugar-level had gone down dangerously." Salman, who was with Anupam at the time, panicked. "He called the paramedics, who rushed in immediately. The laws in the US about medical emergencies during international events are very strict. No one can take them lightly. I told the paramedics that I was okay, and didn’t need any further treatment. But they insisted on a full medical investigation." Anupam went through every possible test and was declared to be in perfect health. The actor says that Salman was a big help at the time of the health scare. "He not only called for medical help, but he also remained on alert all through. I am blessed to have friends like him in the film industry."
