She is now stable, and under a lot of observation and abundance of precautions, considering the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic,” said Faisal Farooqui, who has been spokesperson for the family for a long time now.

Continuing further, Farooqui said,  “Dilip saab ki death ke baad she suffered a lot of stress, and that has also added to her health struggle.'' “Currently, she is in the ICU, but overall is stable. She has been advised to rest with other tests and investigation pending,” adds Farooqui.There were some reports indicating heart attack as the reason behind the current health scare for the 77-year-old actor. “Heart attack nahi tha, chest congestion was the reason, and a lot of doctors are implying that it got bad due to the changes in the weather. Teen din se woh hospital mein hain. Log toh kuch bhi bolenge, haqeeqat main bata raha hun. Also, she is not Covid-19 positive. So, she is resting at the moment,” he shared.
