Pakistani singer Aima Baig has suffered a heart attack while on an international tour.
On Wednesday, Baig took to Instagram to share the news with her fans, revealing that she experienced a minor heart attack due to her grueling schedule, which left her unable to properly care for her health.
She explained that her nonstop traveling and lack of sleep led to extreme fatigue, culminating in this alarming health scare.
In her Instagram post, she emphasized the importance of prioritizing health, stating, “After experiencing a minor heart attack because of nonstop travel and sleepless nights, it’s crucial to take time for self-care.”
The singer, who began her tour in July, initially performed in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, and also made a stop to perform Umrah.
While she had initially planned to stay abroad for over a month, her tour has been clouded by rumors following her abrupt departure from both the country and the music scene.
Although Baig’s condition seems out of danger, she has not disclosed specific details about the timing and location of the incident.
Fans have responded with an outpouring of support on social media, sharing their concerns and well-wishes, while acknowledging her significant contributions to the Pakistani music industry.
