Dharmendra Admitted to Breach Candy Hospital
Veteran Bollywood actor Dharmendra, who will turn 90 this December, has been admitted to Mumbai’s Breach Candy Hospital. The news sparked concern among fans after reports of his hospitalisation circulated online. However, close sources have confirmed that the legendary actor is in good health and has been admitted only for routine medical check-ups.
Family Reassures Fans
According to a family insider, there is no reason to worry. The actor, known for his timeless roles in films like Sholay and Phool Aur Patthar, is reportedly doing fine. His sons, Sunny Deol and Bobby Deol, are keeping a close eye on their father’s health while managing their ongoing film schedules.
“Yes, Dharmendra is currently at Breach Candy Hospital, but there is absolutely no cause for concern. He goes for regular health check-ups and prefers to complete all medical tests at once rather than visit multiple times,” shared a close source.
Routine Tests and Reason Behind Stay
Dharmendra, who maintains an active lifestyle even at 89, reportedly chose to stay at the hospital to undergo a full set of medical tests in one go. The tests usually take two to three days to complete. “Considering his age, daily travel can be tiring. Hence, he himself decided to stay at the hospital until all tests were done,” the source added.
This clarification has calmed fans who were concerned about his health, with many taking to social media to wish the actor a speedy discharge and continued good health.
