Mumbai witnessed heightened concern on Monday morning as an ambulance was seen outside the residence of veteran actor Dharmendra, triggering fresh speculation about his health. Videos circulating on social media showed the emergency vehicle stationed near his Juhu home, prompting fans to await an official statement from the family.
This comes amid renewed worry over the 89-year-old actor’s condition. Earlier this month, rumours of Dharmendra’s demise had gone viral on social platforms, causing widespread confusion before the family intervened to clarify the truth.
Family had previously denied rumours, urged privacy
At the time, his daughter Esha Deol slammed the false reports and reassured fans that Dharmendra was recovering. She wrote:
“THE MEDIA SEEMS TO BE IN OVERDRIVE AND SPREADING FALSE NEWS. MY FATHER IS STABLE & RECOVERING. WE REQUEST EVERYONE TO GIVE OUR FAMILY PRIVACY. THANK YOU FOR THE PRAYERS FOR PAPAS SPEEDY RECOVERY.”
His wife Hema Malini also confirmed that the reports circulating then were incorrect.
As of now, no official health bulletin has been released by the family following today’s ambulance sighting. Celebrities have already begun arriving at the actor’s residence, and further updates are awaited.
Dharmendra, one of Hindi cinema’s most celebrated icons, has a vast and loyal fanbase who continue to monitor developments closely.
