\"AsterDr. S Venkatesh, Lead Interventional Cardiologist, Aster RV Hospital said, \u201cWe are delighted to witness huge participation, we feel that as responsible citizens it is our responsibility to encourage people to be fit and have a healthy young heart with good eating habits and exercise. Unfortunately, our lifestyle changes have curtailed this achievement by enhancing our risks for several diseases. Heart disease is the silent killer in today\u2019s fast paced life and it is important to create awareness around this.\u201d<\/p>\n

This World Heart Day is an opportunity to encourage more caution and care amongst people.\u201d<\/p>\n
