Veteran star Dharmendra has been in the news this week due to his health. On Tuesday, false reports of his demise also surfaced but were immediately dismissed by his wife Hema Malini and daughter, Esha Deol. On Wednesday, Dharmendra was discharged from Mumbai’s Breach Candy Hospital and is currently being treated at home. Amid this, a video of the actor surrounded by his family at the hospital went viral on social media. The video, which was secretly shot and uploaded online, was recorded by a hospital employee who has now been arrested.
In the viral clip, reportedly from inside Breach Candy’s ICU, Dharmendra can be seen lying on a hospital bed with several tubes attached to him. The actor appears unconscious and is surrounded by his family members, including sons Sunny and Bobby Deol. His first wife, Prakash Kaur, is also seen sitting by his side. The visibly emotional family is seen praying for his recovery.
