Alka Yagnik diagnosed with rare sensory hearing loss

Legendary singer Alka Yagnik has been diagnosed with a rare sensory hearing loss caused by a “viral attack.” The beloved 90s music icon shared her health update with fans and followers on Instagram.

In her heartfelt post, Yagnik wrote, “To all my fans, friends, followers, and well-wishers. A few weeks ago, as I walked out of a flight, I suddenly felt I was not able to hear anything. Having mustered some courage in the weeks following the episode, I want to break my silence now for all my friends and well-wishers who have been asking me why I’m missing in action.”

Addressing her supporters and the younger generation of musicians, she added, “For my fans and young colleagues, I would add a word of caution regarding exposure to very loud music and headphones.

Your support and understanding will mean the world to me in this critical hour.”
