13 Nov
Summary
- Dharmendra, 89, discharged from hospital after weeks of treatment
- Sunny Deol requests paparazzi to leave their home and respect privacy
- Amitabh Bachchan mobbed by paparazzi while driving in Juhu
On November 9, 2025, legendary Bollywood actor Dharmendra, 89, was discharged from the Breach Candy Hospital in Mumbai, where he had been undergoing treatment for several weeks. The following day, Dharmendra's eldest son and actor Sunny Deol addressed the media gathered outside their Juhu residence, requesting them to disperse and allow the family to have privacy during this time.
Dharmendra had been admitted to the hospital over a complaint of breathlessness and was reportedly put on life support earlier this week. According to his treating physician, Dr. Pratit Samdani, the family has decided to continue Dharmendra's further treatment at home.
The media frenzy surrounding Dharmendra's health scare comes just a day after another Bollywood icon, Amitabh Bachchan, 83, was mobbed by paparazzi while driving his car in the Juhu area. Footage showed the photographers getting dangerously close to Bachchan's vehicle as he navigated through the crowded streets, likely sparking concerns that the veteran actor may have been visiting his ailing co-star Dharmendra, who also resides in Juhu.
With Dharmendra now discharged and recovering at home, his family has appealed for space and privacy as he continues his treatment. The outpouring of concern for the legendary actor's well-being underscores his enduring popularity and the intense media interest in the health of Bollywood's biggest stars.
