Television actor and model Gehana Vasisth reportedly suffered a cardiac arrest during the filming of a web-series earlier on Friday. She is reported to be "extremely critical" and has been put on ventilator support. Reports claim that she has been working on a long shift without taking proper nutrition.

The actress is currently undergoing treatment at the Raksha Hospital in Mumbai's Malad area.

Pranav Kabra, doctor and head of the hospital, reportedly informed a news agency, "From the preliminary information we have got so far, Gehana Vasisth was shooting for nearly 48 hours without proper nourishment. She has been admitted to the Intensive Care section and we are doing a series of tests on her."

"She has diabetes and her sugar is on the higher side, while her blood pressure is very low. We were told she consumed some energy drinks and was also taking medication for diabetes and some other ailment. We are not sure if there was any reaction between what she consumed. We have to wait for the results of all the tests... She is not responding to treatment and has difficulty breathing on her own. We have put her on a ventilator to ensure she has proper oxygen supply to her brain," he further added.
