“I can’t even talk much because I’m weak from fasting,” he said briefly.

Previously, a viral TikTok video showed Bukit Bendera Member of Parliament, Syerleena Abdul Rashid, visiting the Mami Jarum actor at the hospital.

In the video, she explained that the infection started in his big toe and needed to be amputated immediately to prevent it from spreading to other parts of his body.

Despite his weakened condition, Sathia managed to joke with Syerleena, saying his issue was minor and that he could still play football.

Syerleena also handed over a personal donation to Sathia before leaving.

In the comment section, many netizens expressed sympathy and prayed for the beloved comedian’s speedy recovery. – BOOM!
