Taking to her IG handle, Priya Malik talked in length about her baby boy, Zorawar's hospitalisation and mentioned the probable lapse on her side, which led to the life-threatening situation.
Priya Malik rose to fame with her appearance on the controversial reality show, Bigg Boss season 9. Apart from that, she was also seen on other shows, including Savdhaan India, Nazar, and Crime Patrol. Coming to her personal life, Priya got engaged to a Delhi-based entrepreneur, Karan Bakshi, in 2019, and they tied the knot on October 10, 2022. After two years of marital bliss, the couple embraced parenthood with the arrival of their son, Zorawar Sahib Singh Bakshi, in their lives, in March 2024.
Recently, Priya Malik opened up about her four-month-old son, Zorawar’s life-threatening emergency by taking to her Instagram handle. The actress-turned-poet penned long notes to update her fans about the same. According to her updates, Priya's four-month-old son was battling a high fever, which persisted for over a week, leading to a hospital admission. Elaborating more on the same, she penned:
“He actually had a very high fever and it was persistent for a whole week. Initially, the doctors were suspecting that it was viral and we had to rush him into an emergency on the morning of July 20 because it had reached 103 and for a small baby, it was a life-threatening emergency. He was put on paracetamol for two days. He was given an injection, put on a drip, and then we came back home. But then right after that the fever came back up again at 102 on July 22. So, we had to rush him to the hospital again and this time they admitted him because the fever had been so persistent for so long.”

Further, Priya mentioned that the doctors informed her and her husband, Karan, that their kid got a urinary infection. Thus, while revealing details about the distressing experience, she shared the possible causes of Zorawar’s fever. The doting mommy took the onus of such a situation on her shoulders and added:
“He’s only on breast feed and formula until six months, it would be shocking if it’s a urinary infection. However, I also think that he had some visitors coming over to meet him and by now I had started giving him in people’s laps. I think it was a lapse on my part as well. The doctor also said that adults have immunity to handle the weather, babies don’t. We have a strong feeling that the weather has a contribution to it because it’s monsoon.”
In the end, Priya shared that the infant has been put on an antibiotic course. She also mentioned it was disheartening to see her baby in a hospital on occasions which are meant to be celebratory. Afterwards, she also revealed a few preventive measures her entire family planning, which included flu shots and avoiding giving Zorawar to other people's laps. Finally, mentioning that her baby boy is absolutely fine now, she concluded:
"On the 24th day of every month I usually post a photo dump of Zorawar's monthly birthday. This month however he has spent it in the hospital. Seeing your little baby getting pricked and prodded and hospitalised is definitely one of the hardest things I've ever experienced in my life but Zorawar has stayed true to his name and hence been strong and brave as ever in the last few days. I know mothers are usually considered a child's first teacher but here, seeing him face everything with a smile; the lessons I'm learning from this baby are lessons I'll never forget."
