Bangladeshi stand-up comedian Abu Hena Rony, who recently got injured in a gas balloon explosion in Gazipur, was a big part of the Indian comedy show “Mirakkel.”
The platform’s participants, director, and producers have recently shared several posts praying for Rony’s quick recovery.
Mirakkel's host Mir Afsar Ali asked for prayers for Roni on his Facebook page and wrote: "Abu Hena Rony is fire himself, who has the power to burn him? Pray for him.”
The director of the show, Subhankar Chattopadhyay wrote: "I have spoken to his manager. He said Rony’s condition was better than before. I wish him a speedy recovery.”
When Rony was a contestant on Mirakkel, Sreelekha Mitra adored the Bangladeshi stand-up comedian.
She also wrote on her social media that she wants Rony to get better quickly.
Abu Hena Rony won the Zee Bangla comedy show Mirakkel season 6 in 2011.
On Friday evening, Rony and four others sustained burn injuries in a gas blast on the fourth founding anniversary event of Gazipur Metropolitan Police (GMP).
Shaheed Tajuddin Ahmad Medical College Hospital Resident Medical Officer (RMO) Rafiqul Islam said the injured – Rony, Mosharraf Hossain, Zillur Rahman, Imran Hossain and Rubel Hossain – had been rushed to the hospital.
Later, Rony, Mosharraf Hossain and Zillur were taken to the burn unit of Dhaka Medical College Hospital in critical condition, he said.
Around 25% of the surface area of the comedian’s body was burnt, the physician added.
Meanwhile, GMP has formed a four-member probe body to investigate the incident. The committee was asked to submit a report within three working days.
Doctors at the hospital said one of Rony’s ears and the trachea were burnt during the gas balloon explosion.
