Paresh Rawal told Lallantop, “Agar mujhe urine pina hai toh mai udhel nahi dunga. I will sip it like beer. Karna hai toh pure tareeke se karna hai. (If I have to drink my urine then I will sip it like beer instead of just gulping it down for the sake. I will do it all for the process).”

The actor added,"15 din ke liye maine kia. 15 din bad jab x-ray nikala gaya, doctor dang reh gaya ‘Yeh cementing kaise hua?’ I did this for 15 days. 15 days later when the doctor took my X-ray, he was shocked. The doctor asked me, ‘How did this cementing happen?’"

“He could see the white line forming. I was supposed to be discharged in 2-2.5 months, but I was discharged in 1.5 months. It was like magic,” Paresh claimed his recovery. He said the urine therapy is called Shivambu.

When asked if he had told his family's reaction to his 'formula, the actor said he didn't. “Har baat thori batayenge (I don't need to tell them everything).”

The revelations from the actor have now gone viral on social media. Reacting to it, many have shared memes related to Paresh Rawal's iconic character Baburao Ganpatrao Apte.
