Shrutika said, "I never imagined I would suffer so much after vaccination. The pain of my normal delivery was nothing compared to this. I endured the most pain that night, and I can never forget that night."
Blood pressure dropped to 40
The actress explained that her condition began to worsen within hours of getting vaccinated. According to her, her husband, Arjun, kept checking her breathing throughout the night because her condition was so bad that she was afraid she might stop breathing. "Arjun was checking my nose every 5 minutes to see if I was breathing properly," Shrutika said.

Symptoms like a heart attack, numb face and hand
Shrutika further explained that another terrifying incident occurred 48 hours after the vaccination. She and Arjun were watching the movie King Kong to get some relief, but the loud sound effects of the film worsened her condition. "I suddenly started feeling very anxious, my face started pulling up on one side, and my left hand was also not lifting. I felt like I was having a heart attack," she said.
At that moment, Arjun was also scared and didn't know what to do. According to Shrutika, it all happened so suddenly that it felt like paralysis. "Half of my face was numb. I was very scared."
