Shilpa Shetty Breaks Down Sharing Shocking Details About Her Birth! 

Shilpa Shetty who judges dance reality show ‘Super Dancer’ on Sony TV along with Anurag Basu and Geeta Kapoor has revealed some shocking facts about her birth, after being moved by the performance of 9-year-old physically challenged Dev Varshney from Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh, on stage.

When my Mom was pregnant with me, the doctors had said I will not survive since my mother was bleeding continuously for six months.

Shilpa said “When my Mom was pregnant with me, the doctors had said I will not survive since my mother was bleeding continuously for six months. They also said that the child will not be born normal but mother decided that she would go ahead with giving me birth because she believed if I survive this, I will be a ‘born survivor’. This child is also a ‘born survivor’ and he will go way ahead in life,” said an emotional Shilpa.

Dev has deformed legs since birth and can’t even walk properly but when he came on stage he set it on fire. The full of zeal, Dev danced his heart out on ‘Maai teri chunariya leghrayee..’ from ABCD 2 and the judges looked on mesmerized while his mother Neetu Varshini sitting in audience was crying profusely.

Her mother told Dev actually survived because of his dancing. Dev had a problem in his spine at the time of birth and Doctors had given up on him telling the family that he would only survive for 3-4 days maximum. Dev’s mother says that her son showed courage and later joined dancing school and started walking on his own claiming dance saved his life.

The tearful mother Neetu Varshiney said, “…isne wahan laake mujhe khada kiya jahaan mai kabhi kalpana bhi nahi kar sakti thi.. aise bachchon ko kabhi kum na aanka jaaye.. mere jaisi kitni maayen hain wo sochti hain hamara bachchan aisa hai waisa hai.. mai to isko normally treat karti hun…”
