“Till the 14th of December I was a man obsessed with work. I have been working non-stop technically for the past 30 years or so. I was just focusing on my career and that was about it. We keep saying that we try to spend quality time with our family but that doesn’t happen, your priority is work and you are running after that.”

Shreyas Talpade remarks how his priorities in life have changed after heart attack

Moving further in the conversation, Shreyas Talpade stated that as a natural outcome of facing an unplanned health scare like his heart attack, he has now seemingly changed the priorities in his life. Unlike earlier times, he has now learnt the values of health, his family and his children above all, and work only comes at the end. Revealing how he now has started to take things slower, Shreyas added:

“Post that (heart attack) obviously the priorities have changed. Now my priority is my family, my health, and then comes work. So I feel that if you have to be here for a longer time then you have to take it easy. It is like the story of the hare and the tortoise. What I have learnt is that the tortoise goes at its own pace, consistently, slowly, one step at a time, that is all that matters. There are times when the hare keeps running ahead and then getting tired and keep resting, but I don’t think it is a sustainable way of doing things. I don’t think it works like that… You take it slow, take it easy, because there are other more important things in life that are happening around you, especially your family, your child growing up. So what happens to all those things?”

“My heart had stopped beating for those few minutes. Deepti couldn’t get out of the car from her side of the door as we were stuck in traffic, so she climbed over me and got to the other side to call for help. A few people came to our rescue and rushed me inside. The doctors did CPR, electrical shock, that’s how they revived me. Clinically, I was dead. It was a massive cardiac arrest.”
