Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan and his son Aryan Khan were spotted visiting veteran actor Dharmendra at Mumbai’s Breach Candy Hospital, where the beloved legend is currently recovering.
In a video shared by paparazzi on Instagram, the father-son duo was seen arriving quietly at the hospital on Sunday evening to check on Dharmendra’s health and meet the Deol family.
Affectionately known as Bollywood’s “He-Man,” Dharmendra was admitted to the hospital last week after reportedly experiencing breathing difficulties.
The news had sent a wave of concern across the country, with fans and fellow actors anxiously waiting for updates on his condition.
Initial reports had suggested that the 89-year-old actor was in critical condition and had been placed on ventilator support, but his family quickly stepped forward to put the rumours to rest. His wife, veteran actress Hema Malini, who has been by his side through his recovery, told reporters, “We’re hoping for his speedy recovery.”
Meanwhile, his son Sunny Deol’s team also issued a statement reassuring fans, saying, “This is rumour mongering like always. Sir is getting better. He’s under observation. There’s nothing to worry.”

To manage the growing crowds and media outside Dharmendra’s residence in Juhu, police barricades have been set up. Fans have been gathering daily, leaving flowers and messages of support for the legendary actor who has been a pillar of Indian cinema for more than six decades.
The outpouring of love has also extended to social media, where thousands of posts continue to flood timelines.
Comedian Bharti Singh was among those who sent their heartfelt wishes, saying, “Arre bhagwan aur humaari duaye unke saath hai, unhe kuch nahi hone waala, bas aap prayer ki jiye ki voh jaldi theek hojaye.”
