Pawar is back in action on the tennis court
By Heena Grover Menon @HeenaGM It was around 9pm on April 11, a day after Jayant flew back to Pune from his trip to England and was having a regular day at his plush sports club, located in Kothrud.

Finally, I was moved to Ruby Hall Clinic and a team of seven of the best heart surgeons in the city was waiting for me within half an hour.” Between 12 midnight and 4am, Jayant’s heart beat had dropped thrice and he was given a total of nine adrenaline shots, which he says is a was when the doctors figured that I very rare thing.
