Dr Jalil Parkar, who is one of the doctors treating Dilip Kumar, interacted with the media on Monday evening. He told reporters, “His health is much better now. His oxygen saturation has improved. The fluid has reduced and his breathing difficulty has also reduced.”
The doctor added, “Saira ji is with him. She’s also happy with his improvement. So whatever procedure we wanted to do, we will put that on hold for now. If he continues to improve at this rate and if the fluid reduces, we might discharge him soon. We are happy with his improvement. He might get discharged in 2-3 days.”
Dilip Kumar was admitted on Sunday morning to Hinduja Hospital in Khar after complaining of breathing issues.
