After learning about Indian veteran actor Dharmendra’s passing on Tuesday, fans quickly discovered that the 89-year-old actor was still receiving treatment in the hospital. Fans flooded social media with tributes after he was mistakenly announced dead by some media outlets. When Khaleej Times contacted the family, they clarified that the superstar was admitted to the hospital due to dyspnea and refuted the reports.
Numerous well-known individuals were duped by the fake news and quickly expressed their sympathies on social media. Rajnath Singh, India’s minister of defense, wrote on X, “Deeply saddened by the demise of veteran actor and former MP Shri Dharmendra ji.” “My deepest sympathies on his passing,” declared superstar Chiranjeevi. I pray for eternal peace for his great spirit. Since then, the posts have been removed.
To correct the record, his wife, actor-politician Hema Malini, and their older daughter, Esha Deol, resorted to social media. “What is taking place cannot be forgiven! How can reputable media outlets disseminate misleading information about a patient who is healing and responding to treatment? This is incredibly careless and inconsiderate. “Please respect the family’s right to privacy,” Hema wrote on X. “It appears like the media is actively disseminating misleading information. In an Instagram post, Esha stated, “My father is stable and recovering.”
