Further comments and updates will be shared as available. Hema Malini Sunny and Bobby Deol Dharmendra’s have requested the media including news channels not to indulge in spreading false rumours regarding Dharmendra’s health and requests everyone to pray for his speedy recovery and respect the family’s right to privacy.
While the family has not yet issued an official statement, reports suggest that Dharmendra’s condition has stabilised and he will be monitored by doctors at home. The legendary actor’s well-wishers and fans have been flooding social media platforms with messages praying for his speedy recovery.
On November 11, several reports falsely claimed that Dharmendra had passed away. Reacting to the rumours, the actor’s daughter Esha Deol wrote on Instagram, “The media seems to be in overdrive and spreading false news. Her father is stable and recovering. Request everyone to give their family privacy. Thanks for the prayers for papa’s speedy recovery.
Hema Malini also lashed out, saying, “What is happening is unforgivable! How can responsible channels spread false news about a person who is responding to treatment and is recovering? This is being extremely disrespectful and irresponsible. Please give due respect to the family and its need for privacy.”
Meanwhile, on the work front, Dharmendra is set to star next Sriram Raghavan’s upcoming film Ikkis. The film also stars megastar Amitabh Bachchan’s grandson Agastya Nanda.
