Veteran actor Dharmendra has recently made headlines due to health concerns. Two weeks ago, the 88-year-old star was discharged from hospital, but on November 10, he was re-admitted to Mumbai’s Breach Candy Hospital for further medical care.
Following his re-hospitalisation, unverified reports falsely claiming Dharmendra’s demise began circulating online, causing confusion and panic among his fans. In response to these rumours, security outside Breach Candy Hospital and Dharmendra’s Juhu residence has been significantly tightened. Mumbai Police have deployed additional personnel and installed barricades around the hospital to manage the growing crowd of media and well-wishers and to ensure patient privacy.
Dharmendra’s wife, Hema Malini, and daughter, Esha Deol, have firmly denied all rumours regarding his death. They confirmed that Dharmendra is stable and recovering well. Earlier today, Hema Malini and Esha Deol were spotted visiting the hospital to be by his side.
Several members of the film fraternity have also shown their support and concern during this time. Notable visitors include Salman Khan, Shah Rukh Khan along with his son Aryan Khan, Govinda, Riteish Deshmukh, and Ameesha Patel, all of whom have visited Dharmendra to check on his health.
Reacting strongly to the misinformation, Hema Malini took to social media to express her displeasure. She wrote, “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.”
Esha Deol also released a statement urging restraint. “The media seems to be in overdrive and spreading false news. My father is stable and recovering. We request everyone to give our family privacy. Thank you for the prayers for papa’s speedy recovery,” she wrote.
As of now, Dharmendra continues to receive medical care at Breach Candy Hospital, with his family standing by him. Authorities have urged the public and media to avoid spreading unverified information and to respect the actor’s privacy during this period.
