Fish Venkat – Early Life and Work
Speaking of his personal life, Fish Venkat is married to Suvarna, and the couple has a daughter named Sravanthi. His daughter, Sravanthi, also recently made an emotional appeal for assistance and help during the times of his father’s serious condition. She also revealed that her father, Fish Vekant, has also been on dialysis for the last nine months, and his health has further worsened as his kidneys have completely failed. He is currently in the hospital and was also put on a ventilator. As per the Doctors, a kidney transplant is the only solution, and it would cost around INR 50 lakhs.
Fish Venkat’s Serious Health
She also further shared that actor Prabhas’ team had contacted them and promised to provide financial support for the transplant. “Daddy is very unwell and in the ICU. Prabhas’ assistant assured us of help and asked to be informed when the transplant happens,” she said. However, Venkat’s wife later said that even though actor Prabhas offered financial help, no funds have been received so far. Actor Pawan Kalyan also contributed INR 2 lakhs towards the treatment
Due to medical constraints, no family member has been able to donate their kidney; therefore, the family is going through a tough time finding a suitable kidney donor. Venkant’s daughter, Sravanthi, has requested support from the public and stars like Allu Arjun and Jr. NTR to help find a donor and save her father’s life.
