It’s a wakeup demand David Dawan

It`s a wakeup call for David DawanBy Subhash K Jha

It was Salman Khan who had said that watching David Dhawan eating is more entertaining than watching David Dhawan’s films.

“The man just eats and eats and eats, ” Salman was apparently heard quipping.

That pleasure will soon be something of the past. David Dhawan will finally lose those tell-tale pounds on his body, thereby ending his 20-year old battle of the bulge.

The decision was taken this week after David fell and fractured his shoulder at a public function on Wednesday . The prolific director who's currently shooting a remake of Chashme Buddoor, underwent emergency surgery on Thursday afternoon at Leelavati.

The fall, it's felt by his doctors, would has been far less damaging if David had not piled on such a lot excess weight.

In a do-or-die endeavour to get David back into shape his family has decided to finally put the podgy director on a strict diet once he’s out of hospital.

Says David’s son Rohit, “We don’t know the way exactly he tripped and fell. None folks was there with him. He had gone to wait his dear friends Shashi and Anu Ranjan’s awards function. The following thing we heard he was at Leelavati.

We rushed there and was told it was an overly painful fractured shoulder. Dad underwent operation on Thursday . He’s now recuperating, but in a lot of pain. He'll need to undergo rigorous physiotherapy for a couple of months before his shoulder could be back to normal. ”

Rohit says the accident was a “good wakeup call”.

“We’re definitely going to take charge of his diet now. Enough is enough. We don’t desire a replay of the accident that happened. Dad agrees with us. So now we're at the same page. ”
