Anil Kapoor and Anupam Kher pay a visit to Rishabh Pant in Dehradun hospital, pictures go viral

Veteran Bollywood actors Anupam Kher and Anil Kapoor headed to Max Hospital of Dehradun to see Indian cricketer Rishabh Pant who was recently injured in a major road accident on the Delhi-Dehradun Highway near Narsan Border. Although having a fortune in his favor, the 25-year-old escaped a big loss after his BMW smashed a divider.

The incident happened in the wee hours of Friday, the 30^th of December. He was immediately rushed to the Saksham Hospital of Roorkee, thanks to the heart-winning gesture from the two employees of Haryana Roadways, who were also there in their bus on the Delhi-Dehradun Highway.

Anil Kapoor interacted with the journalists after coming out of the hospital where he informed them about the health status of the Indian southpaw.

“He (Pant) is doing fine. We met him as fans. Let us pray that he recovers soon and we see him playing again,” said Kapoor to reporters.

Senior actor Anupam Kher also talked about the developments in Rishabh’s condition so far.

“Everything is fine. We met Pant, his mother, and his relatives, they are all fine. We made him laugh a lot,” he added later.

Talking about cricket, Rishabh Pant played a crucial role in India’s 2-0 win in the recently concluded two-match Test series. He was supposed to feature in the upcoming two white-ball assignments against Sri Lanka and New Zealand.

But unfortunately, things might take time to go better with the talented Delhi opener and he might be back on the field after a wait of a few months.

Coming back to the car accident of the star wicketkeeper-batter, an old video has recently gone viral over social media. In the video, veteran Indian cricketer Shikhar Dhawan is seen advising Rishabh to drive the car at a slow speed.
