Why the actor was hospitalized

The 89-year-old actor was admitted to the Breach Candy hospital in south Mumbai earlier this week.

“He went to the hospital on Thursday. Since the results would take some time to arrive, the family decided that it would be better for him to stay there until all the routine check-ups are done properly. He is old and needs proper attention from the doctors. There’s nothing to worry about,” the insider told PTI.
