When Bipasha Basu suffered a health scare early in her career

In the interview with Pinkvilla, Bipasha Basu recalled the time when she was suffering from Osteoarthritis. The doctors had told her that she will never be able to dance or perform action any more and might even have to undergo a knee replacement because of her illness. However, Bipasha did not listen to them and instead went to the physiotherapist and training.
