In the video, Bagga is seen working out with a group of people in the gym, but all of a sudden he appears at unease and goes to rest against a pillar before suddenly collapsing on the floor due to a cardiac arrest as others continue their exercise.
Upon noticing Bagga collapsing, others present there rush to check on him, the video showed.
Bagga’s family said he was immediately rushed to a hospital, where doctors pronounced him dead upon arrival.
Reports quoting the family members of the deceased said Bagga was a fitness enthusiast and a regular gym goer.
“As part of his daily route, he went to the fitness centre, where he collapsed while working out,” they said.
Doctors citing preliminary reports said a sudden heart attack seems to be the cause of death, however, the exact cause can only be determined after a post-mortem of the deceased.
