June 19 - Veteran Indian singer Alka Yagnik has been diagnosed with a rare sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) due to a viral attack.

The two-time National Award winner disclosed her condition through an Instagram post on Tuesday.

“A few weeks ago, as I walked out of a flight, I suddenly felt I was not able to hear anything.

“It has been diagnosed by my doctors as a rare sensorineural nerve hearing loss due to a viral attack...This sudden major setback has caught me completely unaware.

“As I attempt to come to terms with it, please keep me in your prayers,” Yagnik wrote, adding that she hopes to “recalibrate” her life and return to the music scene soon.
