Bollywood veteran and beloved actor Dharmendra, aged 89, has been discharged from a Mumbai hospital after a recent health scare. The actor, who was admitted on October 31 following complaints of breathlessness, will now continue his treatment and recovery at home under medical supervision.

Doctors attending to Dharmendra confirmed that his condition had improved enough for him to be shifted out of hospital care. They noted that the decision was made after consultations with his family and medical team, ensuring that he receives adequate monitoring and rest in a more comfortable home environment.

A senior physician from Breach Candy Hospital, who has been overseeing Dharmendra’s treatment, stated that the actor responded well to medical care and that home treatment would allow continued observation without the stress of hospitalization. “He is stable and recovering as expected. The family has decided to have him continue his treatment at home, and he will remain under medical supervision,” the doctor said.

Family Requests Privacy Amid Recovery

Following Dharmendra’s discharge, his family has requested privacy during his recovery period. They appealed to fans and media outlets to refrain from spreading unverified information or speculation about his health.

Earlier in the week, rumours regarding Dharmendra’s critical condition and false reports of his death had circulated on social media, causing concern among fans. His daughter, actress Esha Deol, addressed the misinformation, assuring the public that her father was “stable and recovering well.” She thanked well-wishers for their prayers and concern while emphasizing the family’s wish for space and privacy.

Hema Malini, Dharmendra’s wife and veteran actress, also expressed her disappointment over the circulation of baseless rumours. She confirmed that Dharmendra was “responding positively to treatment” and was being closely cared for by family and medical professionals.
