Singer Kalpana clarifies health incident: ‘Overdose of medication led to unconsciousness’
Hyderabad: Popular playback singer Kalpana Raghavendar has addressed recent health rumors, clarifying that there are no disputes with her husband. The 45-year-old singer explained that stress-induced insomnia led her to seek medical help, and an accidental overdose of prescribed medication resulted in a brief period of unconsciousness.
Kalpana responded to circulating rumors about her personal life, stating, “There is no conflict between my husband and me. I am here to clear the air about the false news that has been spreading about our relationship.”
She further explained the source of her health issues, saying, “I am pursuing a PhD and studying law, thanks to my husband’s support. I am also learning new trends in the music industry and performing at concerts. The stress from all these responsibilities led to my insomnia. When I consulted a doctor, I was prescribed medication. However, I mistakenly took a higher dosage on that day, which caused me to fall into a deep sleep.”
Following reports suggesting a suicide attempt, Kalpana’s daughter issued a statement, assuring the public that her mother’s condition was due to an accidental overdose, not a suicide. “There are no issues within our family. My mother, father, and I are all happy together,” she said.
Earlier, it was reported that Kalpana had consumed sleeping pills at her residence in Nizampet. She was found unconscious and was rushed to Holistic Hospital for treatment. She is now said to be out of danger and is recovering at her home with her husband.
