Shatrughan Sinha's Son Clarifies Veteran Actor Didn't Undergo Any Surgery: 'He Had A Strong Fever'

Shatrughan Sinha has been hospitalised at Kokilaben Ambani Hospital in Mumbai for a routine check-up. The veteran actor tripped in his dining room, as per Times Now, injuring his ribs. Reportedly, the incident happened on Monday, June 25, in his favourite spot at home where he relaxes. His daughter Sonakshi, recently acclaimed for her acting in Heeramandi and newly married, was nearby and swiftly offered help to prevent a more serious fall. The actor’s son, Luv Sinha, had earlier told indianexpress.com, “Dad had viral fever and weakness the last couple of days so we decided to admit him to the hospital.”

And now, Luv has taken to X (formerly Twitter) to clarify that the veteran actor had fever, “In regard to my father’s health I’d like to clarify that there was no surgical procedure, and one shouldn’t believe unverified news. We took my father to the hospital for his annual checkup, and because he had a strong fever. Thank you to everyone who has been concerned,” he wrote.

Earlier, a source had revealed to Times Now, “You will find Shatru most of the time on the same sofa at the same spot. He loves to sit there and see news on TV. Most of his interviews too are conducted there only.” Sonakshi’s uncle, Pahlaj Nihalani also confirmed that the veteran actor is in the hospital. “Yes, Shatruji is in the hospital. But he is absolutely fine now. He should be back home by tomorrow evening,” he had told Times Now.

This come,days after Sonakshi Sinha tied the knot with Zaheer Iqbal. After dating for over seven years, the duo got married in Mumbai last week.
