Veteran screenwriter Salim Khan is currently admitted to Lilavati Hospital after he suffered a ‘minimal brain haemorrhage’.
The Khan family was spotted in and out of the hospital throughout the day.
Today, Sohail Khan and his ex-wife Seema Sajdeh were spotted arriving at the hospital to meet Salim Khan.
The former couple was accompanied by their elder son, Nirvaan Khan, as they visited Salim Khan to check on him.
Previously, Salim Khan’s wives, Salma Khan and Helen, visited him at the Lilavati Hospital in Mumbai. They were accompanied by Salman Khan and his rumoured girlfriend, Iulia Vantur.
Javed Akhtar and Sanjay Dutt were also spotted at the hospital late at night to meet their close friend and show support to the Khan family.
Salim Khan was rumoured to undergo surgery for a blood clot due to high blood pressure. However, the doctors held a press briefing on Wednesday morning and shared an update on Salim Khan’s health.
Dr Jalil Parkar, who is treating the veteran screenwriter, revealed that Salim Khan suffered a minimal brain haemorrhage and underwent a medical procedure on Wednesday morning.
He told the media, “There was minimal brain haemorrhage. A procedure called DSA was done today morning. No surgery was required. He is still on ventilator. By tomorrow hopefully, he will be off ventilator. Keeping in mind the age, the time of recovery is more.”
Dr Parkar added, “He's fine, he's stable... All in all, he's doing quite well.”
The physician added that Salim Khan was having some "jerks" and that his blood pressure was "high" when he was admitted. "He was given immediate care at the hospital," he said.
On Tuesday morning, family doctor Dr. Sandeep Chopra took Salim Khan to the hospital's emergency room before transferring him to the intensive care unit.

Dr Parkar noted, “After initial diagnosis and medication, we realised he needed ICU care. We put him on the ventilator because we wanted to do certain investigations. He was put on the ventilator as a safeguard so that he doesn't worsen.”
His condition was never "as critical" as was reported in the media, according to doctors. His recuperation is currently being tracked by a group of cardiologists and neurologists.
