While Mithun was being transported by car from Tannerupantha Alake near Uppinangady to Mangaluru, Pradeep was traveling by bus to KMC. As the car reached Punjalakatte, Mithun's chest pain worsened. His relatives informed Pradeep, who quickly got off the bus at Vagga. Carrying emergency heart attack medicine, Pradeep administered the drug to Mithun, preventing a more severe attack.

Pradeep also arranged for a KMC ambulance to bypass traffic on the way to Mangaluru, ensuring Mithun was admitted to the hospital promptly. Mithun, who did not know Pradeep beforehand, owes his recovery to Pradeep's extraordinary concern and actions.

Mithun underwent successful surgery and is now healthy, as confirmed by Dr Padmanabha Kamath. Pradeep's selfless act has earned widespread appreciation from the public.
