“Everything Stopped… People Were Screaming!” — Parineeti Chopra’s Saas Hospitalized After Sudden Medical Emergency During ‘The Great Indian Kapil Show’

Mumbai — What was supposed to be a lighthearted day of laughter, celebrity banter, and behind-the-scenes fun turned into chaos and heartbreak, as Parineeti Chopra’s mother-in-law collapsed during the filming of ‘The Great Indian Kapil Show’, prompting an immediate medical response and widespread concern among fans and media alike.

According to multiple eyewitnesses on set, the incident occurred during a segment in which Parineeti was joking with Kapil Sharma about married life and her in-laws. Just moments after laughter erupted across the stage, everything came to a halt.

“One moment we were laughing… the next, we heard a chair fall and a commotion from the front row. Then someone shouted for help,” said a crew member, visibly shaken.

It was Mrs. Reena Chadha, mother of politician Raghav Chadha and Parineeti’s mother-in-law, who had reportedly accompanied her daughter-in-law for support during the shoot.

Medical Emergency Caught Everyone Off Guard

Security and crew immediately sprang into action as Mrs. Chadha appeared to lose consciousness. Parineeti was seen rushing off-stage, visibly panicked and on the verge of tears, calling for medical assistance while holding her mother-in-law’s hand.

Within minutes, an ambulance arrived at Film City and she was taken to Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital in Andheri. Sources close to the family confirmed that she was conscious but weak upon arrival and is now under intensive observation.

“She had been feeling a little dizzy earlier in the day, but no one expected this,” shared a family aide.

Filming was immediately suspended, with Kapil Sharma personally walking Parineeti to her car and offering words of comfort.

Parineeti’s Emotional Breakdown

According to an assistant on set, Parineeti broke down backstage, trembling and crying as she waited for updates on her saas’ condition.

“She kept saying, ‘She was fine this morning. I shouldn’t have brought her.’ It was heartbreaking to see her like that.”

This marks a rare and vulnerable moment for the actress, who has always projected strength and positivity in public. While the family has requested privacy, Parineeti reportedly cancelled all engagements for the next week and has been staying at the hospital with her husband Raghav since the incident.

How Did It Happen?

Medical sources suspect that a combination of heat, fatigue, and low blood pressure may have triggered the sudden collapse. The shoot, which began early in the morning, ran well into the afternoon, and the studio lights were reportedly “extremely hot.”

A medical professional at the hospital stated:

“She is stable for now, but we’re monitoring her heart rate and neurological responses closely.”

Fans Send Waves of Support

Once the news broke, #StayStrongParineeti and #PrayersForSaas began trending on X (formerly Twitter). Thousands of fans from across India and the diaspora flooded social media with messages of support:

“Family always comes first. Take care, Pari.”
“May Mata Rani bless your saasu maa with strength and recovery.”
“This is such a reminder that health is so unpredictable. Stay strong, Queen!”

Even celebrities joined in — Alia Bhatt, Kiara Advani, and Ayushmann Khurrana sent well wishes through Instagram stories and private messages.

Kapil Sharma Issues Official Statement

Later that evening, Kapil Sharma himself took to Instagram to post a message:

“What happened today on set was unexpected and very emotional. We are all praying for Parineeti’s family. The shoot will resume after they are ready. Health always comes first.”

What’s Next?

While filming of ‘The Great Indian Kapil Show’ is expected to resume next week, Parineeti’s episode may be postponed or altered depending on the situation. Netflix India has remained silent on the matter but is reportedly in full support of whatever decision the Chopra-Chadha family takes.

As of now, Mrs. Chadha remains in stable condition and surrounded by family, including her son Raghav, Parineeti, and close relatives.

A Scary Reminder

This incident has left many shaken — a reminder that even in the glitz and glamour of celebrity life, health and family remain the ultimate priorities.

Parineeti, known for her resilience and grace, now faces one of the most emotional moments of her married life.

But if there’s one thing we know about her — she’s a fighter, and so is her family.
