Veteran screenwriter Salim Khan, who is the father of Bollywood actor Salman Khan, was admitted to Mumbai's Lilavati Hospital in Bandra on February 17. Salim Khan was initially treated by his family doctor and received treatment for hypertension.
Salman's Battle of Galwan co-star Chitrangda Singh has now provided an update on Salim Khan’s health.
In a recent conversation with IANS, Chitrangda said, “He’s doing very well. I wish him all the best and good health.”
The latest health update came after Dr Jalil Parkar held a press briefing on February 18 and said, “Yesterday morning he (Salim Khan) was admitted to the Lilavati Hospital. He was brought in by his family physician, whose name is Dr Sandeep Chopra.”
The doctor added, “After seeing him in the casualty and giving him some medication, we realised that he needed ICU hospitalisation and we took him to the ICU. He was having jerks, and his blood pressure was high, for which we treated him and we had to put him on the ventilator because we wanted to do certain investigations. Now, the ventilator that was put was as a safeguard, so that he doesn’t worsen. So it was not that he was critical as you all have said on various channels.”
Meanwhile, Chitrangda will be next seen with Salman Khan in the upcoming war drama, Battle of Galwan. The love song from the movie on Valentine's Day last weekend left social media in awe with their captivating chemistry.
Salman was shooting for the film when he received the news about his father, Salim Khan’s hospitalisation. The actor put everything on hold and rushed to the hospital. He has been spotted in and out of the hospital for the last two days.
