Recalling his first day on sets, Shreyas said that it was a day of mixed emotions. “I was happy to be back on set, but at the same time, there was this little bit of nervous energy in me that ‘is everything okay? Will I be okay?’ I kept checking my heart rate on my watch. Once I was past that, I started shooting.” He also quipped that there were little butterflies in his stomach before shooting. He also added that he wants to take it slow and give his body enough time to recover.
Talking about the doctor’s advice, he said that he has been advised to do his regular workouts, cardio, and certain walks, cycling as the heart needs that kind of stimulus to start pumping again to normalcy. “But I'm happy that I'm back on sets,” expressed the actor.

He added, “My doctors tell me that post-Covid, they've seen an increase in these incidents because the blood apparently has started thickening. With that, what happens is, obviously, there's a certain plaque that accumulates. In my case, probably due to excessive physical exertion, the plaque burst and ruptured. That's how it got blocked. It was pretty sudden, and it was an accident which was unfortunate. I'm just thankful to God for getting me out of it and giving me one more opportunity.”
