The veteran actor’s brother Anurag have been seeking monetary help. He told BT, “His condition deteriorated and I got him admitted to the hospital on Monday night. He has exhausted all his savings on medical expenses. I borrowed some money from people for his dialysis around 10 days ago. The doctors have suggested a kidney transplant. We have no clue how we will get it done, as he doesn’t have enough money for it.”

Cine & TV Artistes’ Association (CINTAA) also shared a post requesting donations for the actor.

Bollywood actor Sonu Sood, who has been a messiah to the migrant workers and students during the pandemic, has reached out to the ailing actor. Responding to a well-wisher’s tweet, Sonu replied: "In touch with them."

Have a look.
