Telugu star Pawan Kalyan and his wife Anna Lezhneva hosted Prime Minister Narendra Modi at their Hyderabad home on Sunday. Anna took to Instagram to post pictures of the PM's visit, revealing that she promised him one thing after the actor-politician's health scare.
Anna shared numerous Instagram Stories of Modi's visit to their home, including a picture of Pawan greeting Modi with a bouquet and another of the whole family posing together. She wrote, 'We were honoured today to welcome Honourable Prime Minister @narendramodi at our home.' She added, 'Today was amazing. I feel overwhelmed and overwhelmed.'
Posting a picture of Modi interacting with her, Anna wrote, 'Promised Narendra Modi ji that I'll take good care of my husband.' Modi also interacted with Pawan's children from his previous marriage to actor-model Renu Desai, Akira Nandan and Aadhya, apart from their half-siblings, Polina Anjana Pawanovna and Mark Shankar Pawanovich.
Anna also posted the pictures on her Instagram Feed, remarking there was something 'deeply human' about Modi's visit. A portion of her caption read: 'He told my husband to focus on his health first and only then return to work. And with a smile, he told me to take good care of him, which I already do very happily.'
Pawan Kalyan fell ill while attending a meeting with officials in April and had to cut it short. He was recovering from a Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS) and had a severe sinus infection that impacted his eye. Nasal bleeding persisted after the procedure, but he was assured that it would resolve.
The actor-politician also had a separate health concern that had been building for years. Injuries he had sustained over the years during his acting career had gone untreated and were causing discomfort. Pawan reportedly has been dealing with shoulder muscle damage for the past five years, including a rotator cuff injury.
