The Story in Brief
Actor Shakeela has undergone neck surgery costing Rs 3 lakh after excessive mobile phone use and improper posture. She said she spent up to four hours lying on her side playing games and then watching reels on YouTube and Instagram, taking breaks only for tea or coffee. The condition required surgery at Medway Hospital in Chennai, where a titanium screw was used to correct the damage.
The Indian Opinion
Shakeela's warning about phone addiction is timely but risks being shrugged off as just another celebrity health scare. The real test will be whether parents and young users see her Rs 3 lakh surgery as an exception or a caution. With screen time rising steadily across India, who will track the long-term toll on ordinary users who cannot afford such treatment or a month of recovery?
