Saba Pataudi has spoken about the period when she was diagnosed with a brain tumor at 27. She shared the story on Soha Ali Khan’s podcast “All About Her,” in an episode where she discussed brain tumors and brain health with a doctor. She said she underwent surgery in 2006.
The Day She Fainted
Saba said she had no significant symptoms beforehand. While out one day, she felt uneasy and assumed it was a stomach issue, since she has always had a sensitive stomach. She told a friend she was unwell and wanted to go home, but her vision suddenly blurred and she fell unconscious on the road.
