Last week, a 31-year-old man collapsed and died from a heart attack inside Lord Hanuman Temple in Hyderabad’s Kukatpally Housing Board Colony. In recent years, there has been an increasing worry about heart attacks among young people in India.

Similarly, a groom in Hathras, Uttar Pradesh, died of a heart attack just a day before his wedding. The incident took place during a pre-wedding ceremony and was captured on video, which has since gone viral on social media. 

Family members rushed him to the district hospital, where doctors pronounced him dead on arrival. Still in disbelief, the family took him to a private hospital, but the doctors there also confirmed his death, citing a heart attack as the cause.
