Mumbai: As the rumours around the demise of veteran actor Dharmendra flare up, his son, actor Sunny Deol’s team has once again issued a clarification saying the actor continues to be stable. They also urged people not to indulge in spreading rumours.
The team said in a statement, “Mr. Dharmendra is stable and under observation. Further comments and updates will be shared as available. Kindly don’t indulge in spreading false rumours regarding his health . Request everyone to pray for his speedy recovery and respect the family’s right to privacy”.
Earlier, on Monday evening, Dharmendra’s sons, actors Sunny Deol and Bobby Deol visited him. Another Bollywood superstar Salman Khan was also seen arriving at the hospital with heavy security.
Bollywood megastar Shah Rukh Khan was also seen arriving at the Breach Candy Hospital in South Mumbai to meet the veteran actor after the latter was admitted. The actor’s Rolls-Royce Cullinan Black Badge was seen arriving at the hospital. The actor’s elder son Aryan Khan was also seen with him paying a visit to the veteran actor.
Dharmendra, who was reportedly put on a ventilator, is said to be suffering from breathing difficulties. Dharmendra is one of Bollywood’s most enduring and beloved stars. He was born in 1935 in Punjab, and began his career in the early 1960s, after he was discovered through a talent hunt competition.
In the late 1950s, Filmfare magazine, in collaboration with Bimal Roy Productions, organized a nationwide talent contest to find new faces for Hindi cinema. Dharmendra entered the competition and was selected as the winner in 1958, chosen for his striking looks and natural charm.
