After being admitted in the hospital for more than 10 days where she underwent a surgery for cerebrospinal fluid leak, VJ Archana Chandhoke returned home at the end of last month (July 2021). More than 30 days after the surgery, Archana came live on her YouTube channel recently and answered many of fans' questions and also revealed as to when she'll join back on the sets of Vijay TV.
In her first video after surgery, the 'Bigg Boss Tamil' actress thanked the nurses who stayed with her and took care of her throught the procedure and the rest of recovery days and said that the doctors diagnosed the issue within 24 hours and took her to the surgery. She also expressed gratitude to her family, friends and fans who prayed for her good health.
Earlier, Archana's daughter Zaara and her sister Anita took to their YouTube channel to give the details of her surgery and describe the procedure. Zaara mentioned that the tissue used to cover the leak was taken from her right thigh. Now Archana herself came on the live video after several weeks and updated her fans about her health. When asked to when she'll return to host the popular Mr and Mrs Chinnathirai season 3 show, she said, "If you ask me, I can come even now, but I have 16 stitches in my right thigh. Doctors have made a cut there and taken skin and muscles to graft it in the nose area to fix the CSF leak (cerebrospinal fluid leak)."
Noting that shooting on sets requires her to stand for 15-16 hours, she said, "My right leg is still weak and my energy levels are down. It will take some time for me to come back to form. I have a test on September 3, so hopefully I should be back by September 10."
