True to his fun-loving image, Saxena added humour to his recovery journey. A photo from a small celebration carried the line “PARTY TODAY GYM TOMORROW”, while another from his hospital room read “NO MORE SOUP!!!” A separate picture declared “NO MORE WALKING STICK!!!”, signalling his optimism about bouncing back quickly.This update follows an earlier post where Saxena had shared visuals of himself undergoing a standing MRI scan ahead of the lumbar spine procedure, captioned, “Standing MRI before lumbar spine surgery at Bombay Hospital.”
