Emotional Hema Malini makes first appearance with Esha Deol after condemning death news about Dharmendra’s health

Hema Malini visits hospital

Veteran actress Hema Malini looked visibly emotional when she was spotted outside Mumbai’s Breach Candy Hospital, where her husband and legendary actor Dharmendra is currently undergoing treatment.

She was sitting quietly in their car with her daughter, Esha Deol, who was obviously nervous but calm.

Paparazzo Viral Bhayani posted images and videos of the mother-daughter pair on social media, and they immediately went viral, inspiring fans nationwide to send love, prayers, and well wishes.

The 88-year-old actor, fondly known as Bollywood’s “He-Man,” was admitted to hospital on November 1 after reportedly experiencing breathing issues.

Rumours began to circulate after he was admitted to the hospital, with multiple untrue reports claiming that he was on life support or had been transferred to the intensive care unit.

Hema Malini took to X (formerly Twitter) to express her frustration and disappointment at the false reports. “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,” she wrote, making a heartfelt appeal for compassion and restraint.

Esha Deol also shared an update on Instagram, assuring fans that her father was doing better. “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 posted.

Sunny Deol’s team later released a statement reiterating that Dharmendra was stable and under observation. “Mr Dharmendra is stable and under observation. Further comments and updates will be shared as available. Request everyone to pray for his speedy recovery and respect the family’s right to privacy.”
