As per reports, legendary actor, Dilip Kumar was rushed to Mumbai's suburban Khar-based Hinduja hospital after he complained of breathlessness as a "precautionary measure".
A non-COVID facility, Dilip Kumar has been admitted into the intensive care unit (ICU) and is currently stable, as per agency reports.
A source was quoted telling indianexpress.com, "Dilip Kumar was brought to the hospital yesterday (Tuesday), he had the same complaints that he had last time. So his family probably thought it was best to bring him to the hospital, considering his age and also because he was previously admitted with the same complaint. Today the doctors will see him again and take a call on his line of treatment. He is in the ICU so that we can continuously monitor him. He is under observation and he is stable. There is nothing to worry."
The 98-year-old icon was earlier admitted to Mumbai's Hinduja Hospital on June 6 due to episodes of breathlessness. He was later diagnosed with bilateral pleural effusion. He was in the ICU ward on oxygen support. However, after getting appropriate treatment, the veteran icon was discharged from the hospital on June 11.
The megastar has been suffering from age-related health issues in recent years. Last month, the 98-year-old actor was admitted to the same hospital for two days regarding some routine checkups and tests.
Known as the 'Tragedy King' of Bollywood, Kumar's career has spanned over six decades. He has acted in over 65 films in his career and is known for his iconic roles in movies like 'Devdas' (1955), 'Naya Daur' (1957), 'Mughal-e-Azam' (1960), 'Ganga Jamuna' (1961), 'Kranti' (1981), and 'Karma' (1986).
