Veteran Indian actress Saira Banu’s spokesperson Faisal Farooqui has confirmed on Wednesday that she is now stable but still in ICU.
Earlier in the day, Saira, 77, made headlines after being admitted to the hospital for chest-related concerns.
Saira and late actor Dilip Kumar’s close friend Farooqui, who has been a family representative for a while now, has told the media that her condition is now stable.
"There is nothing to worry about, thanks to the almighty. She was admitted to Hinduja Hospital at Khar three days ago due to chest congestion. She is now stable, and under a lot of observation and abundance of precautions, considering the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic."
Farooqui went on to admit that Saira Banu's health has been tumultuous after husband Dilip Kumar's death.
“Dilip saab ki death ke baad she suffered a lot of stress, and that has also added to her health struggle," he said.
“Currently, she is in the ICU, but overall is stable. She has been advised to rest with other tests and investigation pending,” added Farooqui.
Saira Banu’s husband and legendary Indian star Dilip Kumar passed away on July 7 this year.
