“He has undergone surgery and is now kept on a ventilator. His condition is stable now. At 11am on Wednesday, we will issue a press bulletin with the consent of the family and relatives,” Dr Jalil Parkar from the hospital was quoted regarding Salim Khan's surgery.
“He is stable but under close observation with regard to his clinical status,” the doctor further shared a health update.
Shortly after he was admitted, Salman Khan also reached the hospital premises.
