The video begins with Shamita sitting on the hospital bed and wearing the surgical cap. On the other hand, Shilpa Shetty, who shot the video, can be heard asking her younger sister, 'Kya Hua' (what happened). Later Shamita reveals that she's dealing with Endometriosis and requests women to take care of themself as most females deal with such diseases but are unaware.
Shamita's caption read, "Did you know that almost 40 % of women suffer from Endometriosis.. and most of us are unaware of this disease!!! I want to thank both my doctors, my gynac dr Neeta Warty, and my General practitioner Dr. Sunita Banerjee for not stopping till they found out the root cause of my pain! Now that I’ve had this disease surgically removed I’m looking forward to good health and now more physically pain-free days!"
