Disha Patani, seen as a fitness icon, recalls an exercise accident saying “I couldn’t remember anything… I lost six months” after being left unconscious

Disha Patani has revisited a dark chapter from her fitness journey, opening up about a gymnastics accident that left her with a serious head injury and a prolonged gap in memory. According to TOI, the actress described recounting how a training fall led to head trauma and memory loss severe enough to erase months of her life from recall.

According to TOI report, Patani says she was practising gymnastics on a hard terrace surface when she fell and struck her head, after which she “lost six months of my life because I couldn’t remember anything.” Patani shared that the fall caused trauma intense enough to erase the memory of an entire day. She said she regained consciousness only later, unable to recall how she ended up injured. The episode left her shaken but did little to temper her drive to train again. Patani said that structured practice and patience helped her retain confidence, although she needed months to regain rhythm and technique.

The actor has continued to remain a prominent public figure with regular appearances at events and industry gatherings, including her recent outings where she has been seen promoting her fitness centric image. In recent years, Disha Patani has remained consistently visible on the big screen.

She appeared alongside Tamil star Suriya in the large scale action drama Kanguva, which drew mixed responses from audiences. Her recent work also includes the action film Yodha and the thriller Ek Villain Returns. Looking ahead, Patani is set for a fresh pairing with Shahid Kapoor in the action thriller Arjun Ustara, now officially titled Romeo. The film has completed production and is scheduled for release on Valentine’s day 2025, according to media reports, marking her first collaboration with Kapoor.
