Dharmendra Not Critical, Under Observation: Family Clarifies

Veteran actor Dharmendra was admitted to Breach Candy Hospital in Mumbai last week for a routine medical check-up. Close family sources have dismissed rumours of him being critical or on a ventilator, confirming he is doing well and remains under observation.

“The whole ventilator news is fake. Dharmendra has been hospitalised for a week, but he is not on a ventilator. Sunny Deol visited Dharmendra in the morning at the hospital, and he is back now. If something like this would have happened, his entire family would have been in the hospital.”

Family and Team Statements

Earlier this month, the actor’s wife, Hema Malini, reassured the public when responding to reporters about his condition by giving an ‘okay’ gesture. Dharmendra’s team had also clarified at the time of his admission on October 31 that it was for a routine check-up, emphasizing his stable health.

“There is absolutely no cause for concern. The actor is in good health and visits the hospital often for routine medical tests, which is the reason for his current stay. It seems that someone spotted him there, which has led to a frenzy among his fans, but there is nothing to worry about as he is absolutely fine.”

Summary

All reports of Dharmendra’s critical condition are false, and he continues to be monitored for routine health checks without any emergency concern.

Author's summary: Dharmendra remains in stable condition during a routine hospital stay, with family and team firmly dismissing all rumours of serious illness.
