Mumbai: Bollywood legend Dharmendra is stable as he is recovering, confirmed his wife and actor Hema Malini.
The actor is undergoing treatment at Mumbai’s Breach Candy Hospital, India Today reported.
As reports confirming the death of the veteran actor began doing rounds on social media, Hema Malini and daughter Esha Deol came out with an explanation.
Denying reports on social media on Tuesday morning, Hema Malini in a post said: ‘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.’
Dharmendra, who was honoured in 2012 with the Padma Bhushan, India's third highest civilian honour, has been undergoing treatment for the past several days.
