International bodybuilder Sameer Dabilkar said at the time of his death:
He left bodybuilding four years ago. He was in financial trouble due to the lockdown. Neither he nor Lakhan, a bodybuilder here, received proper treatment and died as a result. Even his wife has contracted the coronavirus. His landlord did not allow them to move out of the Vadodara house as he had no money to pay the rent. If COVID hits our immune-compromised bodybuilders, it can hit anyone. Bodybuilders are not gods and we too can be severely affected by COVID-19. “
