Actor Hema Malini on Tuesday morning slammed “false news” reports about her husband and legendary actor Dharmendra’s health amid unconfirmed reports of his death.
Hema Malini, in an X post, said Dharmendra (89) is “recovering and responding to treatment”.
“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 on the microblogging site.
Dharmendra has been on ventilator support since November 10, sources close to the family told NDTV. He was admitted to Mumbai’s Breach Candy Hospital after he complained of breathlessness.
