Parchure had previously spoken about his cancer diagnosis during a talk show, revealing that doctors had found a 5 cm tumor in his liver. In an interview, he explained, “I was told I had a tumor about 5 centimeters long in my liver, and it was cancerous.”
However, his treatment was complicated by a misdiagnosis, which exacerbated his condition. Parchure shared his ordeal, saying, “My first procedure after the diagnosis went wrong, impacting my pancreas and leading to further complications. I couldn’t walk or speak clearly for a while. The doctors suggested waiting for a month and a half before any surgery due to potential risks like jaundice or liver damage. Thankfully, I sought a second opinion and received the proper treatment, including chemotherapy.”

He is best known for his roles in Marathi projects such as Vasu Chi Sasu, Priyatama, and Turk Mhatare Arka.
