After meeting the 82-year-old Shiv Sena chief, Raj Thackeray told reporters that his uncle's health had improved.
Soon afterwards, several senior Sena and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leaders, prominent Mumbaikars and party activists also reached the hospital to enquire about Bal Thackeray's health, a party official said.
Bal Thackeray was admitted to the hospital on Thursday after an incessant bout of coughing. Although the party official said he was undergoing a "routine medical check-up", he was kept overnight in the intensive care unit (ICU).
