He is passing urine, he is not on the ventilator, he is not on dialysis either and he is doing well. It’s very difficult to say when he will be get discharged but it will take some more time,” a statement from the hospital read.
Today, the actor’s team took to Twitter and thanked Dilip Kumar’s fans for their constant prayers for the betterment of the actor. “Dilip Saab is doing much better now. Please remember him in your prayers. The excellent team of doctors and staff of Lilavati Hospital along with Saira Baaji are caring for Dilip Saab 24×7.”
Earlier, Ajay Kumar Pande, Vice President, Lilavati Hospital told IANS, “He is stable, he has no fever, no breathlessness, he is conscious, he has eaten certain food prescribed by the doctors, his creatinine level is lower and his urine output is better, which is a good sign. We’re not thinking about that because his creatinine level is lower and urine output has improved. These are positive things.”
