Ashiesh Roy Needs Kidney Transplant But Has No Money

It is probably known to all by now that TV actor Ashiesh Roy has been suffering from kidney ailments. The actor also requires dialysis every two weeks, but since the lockdown has begun, he has been suffering from financial crunch. In fact, he wanted to sell his flat in order to get some money for his treatment, but that too got delayed due to the lockdown. Now, the actor needs to undergo a kidney transplant immediately, but he doesn’t have money to afford it.
According to a report in TOI, the actor wants to get a kidney transplant because he does not have money for regular dialysis. He said, “My kidneys have been damaged and for my body to function I need a kidney transplant. If I stop my dialysis andar hi andar kachra jama hote jayega and it will become toxic. Right now I am thinking of kidney transplant because I can't simply use all my money for dialysis. But kidney transplant is a tedious and long process till it happens I will have to survive on dialysis and also because of the growing cases of covid-19, there is a high risk of infection so I can't even opt for kidney transplant now. It is a very expensive proposition so the kidney transplant is the permanent solution. My doctors have already told me that during Covid-19 and for next 6 months I should not even think about kidney transplant because it is a highly risky process. So, I have no other option but to survive on dialysis. I have cut down on salt, I only take two to four sips of water.”
He also explained that right now he is facing monetary crisis. He said, “My main problem this time is money. I am facing a great financial crisis. Because of the lockdown there was no income but we had to meet our daily expenses. The lockdown is just going on extending and there is no source of income right now the situation is really bad.”
He also thanked people like Hansal Mehta and Habib Faisal who had helped him and Vijay Krishna Acharya who has been raising fund for him. We hope his problems come to an end soon!
