Dharmendra was admitted to the hospital after his health deteriorated and received treatment for several days before being discharged on November 12.
Several media reports, on Thursday, alleged that a staff member from Mumbai’s Breach Candy Hospital was arrested for recording a private video of ailing actor Dharmendra and his family inside the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). The leaked clip, which surfaced online on Wednesday morning, showed an emotional moment involving the Deol family while the 89-year-old actor was undergoing treatment. However, based on the information gathered so far, it is important to note that no official arrest has been made in the case.
Dharmendra was admitted to Breach Candy Hospital after his health deteriorated and remained under medical supervision for several days before being discharged on November 12. During his hospitalisation, false rumours about his death spread on social media, prompting his wife, actress Hema Malini, and daughter Esha Deol to issue a clarification on November 11 stating that he was alive and recovering.
The video, reportedly filmed by a hospital employee without consent, showed Dharmendra lying unconscious on a hospital bed while his sons Sunny and Bobby Deol stood beside him. His grandsons, Karan and Rajveer Deol, along with his first wife, Prakash Kaur, were also seen in the footage. The clip quickly went viral, sparking outrage over the breach of patient privacy and confidentiality.
Officials said the staff member who filmed the video has been identified and detained. Sources revealed that the individual shared the footage online without authorisation, violating hospital rules and ethical standards. Further details regarding the investigation are awaited.
After Dharmendra’s discharge early Tuesday morning, the Deol family issued an official statement expressing gratitude to fans and requesting privacy. The statement read, “Mr Dharmendra has been discharged from the hospital and will continue his recovery at home. We request the media and the public to refrain from further speculation and respect his and his family’s privacy during this time.”
Meanwhile, Sunny Deol was seen losing his temper at paparazzi outside his Mumbai home, urging them to stop intruding during his father’s recovery. He told them, “You guys should be ashamed. You have parents at home. You have children, aren’t you ashamed?” Dharmendra is now recovering at home under the care of his family.
